Take a water hose, put one end in the pool and put the other end where you want the water to drain, siphon it by sucking through your end of the hose and when the water flows into your muth spit it out, because the water is flowing, it will not stop until air enters the other side of the hose thanks to air displacement and gravity

There is a plug under the skimmer basket attached to the pump. In some instance there maybe a plug underneath the pump itself.

How do you drain a pool without a pump?

By opening the drain valve SLOWLY as not to cause a dangerous vortexI have worked on over 60,000 pools and have seen a drain valve once. The pool was built in the 30's on the coast and they used to pump sea water into it once a week and drain it to the ocean. I have drained pools by siphoning but you need enough grade to do this or a hillside behind the pool with a long enough hose to prevent soil erosion. You're better off renting a submersible pump.


Is it ever necessary to cut a pipe off to drain it while closing a pool?

Not if it,s plumbed right, You should never have to cut into the pool plumbing to drain a pool. Rent a portable sump pump to do the job. Be certain where you drain the water making sure it does not go onto a neighbors property or that it will not wash out a hill side. Also beware, some cities do not allow draining pools into the street, the sewer, vacant lots etc. k


Do you use the main drain and the skimmer when filtering your pool?

You only use the skimmer/s


Does the main drain line in skimmer have water in it when closing the pool?

No. You cannot use the main drain to lower the water level below the skimmer. This is because the main drain is not really a drain. It only connects right back to the 3 port valve in the skimmer.


Your pool pump is working but it is not pumping water from the pool its like there is a blockage some where what could be the problem?

could be , is the water level above the skimmer/s / are the skimmer baskets clean/? pump may have just lost it's prime. fill pump with water replace lid and restart.


Where is the drain plug for the front differential on a 1996 Chevy s-10 blazer?

There is no drain plug. The only way to drain the old fluid is to undo the 5/8 bolt[ which is slightly on the drivers side] of the housing and insert a drain hose and suck the old fluid out with a pump. Use this same fill hole to add new fluid with either the new squeeze caps that come with the 32 oz containers of fluid or turn the pump around and pump the new fluid in.

Why would a DE pool pump surge water at 7 pounds then slow down at 15 pounds?

The ropes inside the filter have become blocked, not letting the clean water out at the desired rate of the out put of the pump. A: Firstly, the pool pump is not a DE pump. The pool pump is the one with the motor attached and a round pot like device attached to the motor with a basket inside. The DE FILTER or large tank type device is probably what you are talking about. At 15#'s the filter is overloaded with dirt and cannot pass the water thru it freely or with ease. And I am sure that you are talking about the flow of water thru the filter back to the pool slowing in this instance - right. Back wash the filter before it reaches 15#'s. k
