How do you remove and replace a pool pump?

Answer 1

Repair of PVC pipe is usually limited tor replacing the damaged pipe with new. The pipe, fittings, and bonding materials can be purchased at most home improvement centers like HomeDepot. Keep in mind that the pipes and pumping equipment of above-ground pools should be removed during the winter to prevent freeze damage, so don't glue everything up as a permanent installation. You will probably need to use some type of union to allow disconection of the pipes that could collect water and freeze. You should be able to copy the original installation. But you may not have to replace everything. If you just have a section of pipe that is broken it is easy to cut out and replace with a new length and a couple of fittings and PVC cleaner, primer, and cement. Ask the store clerk for help in selecting and using these items.

Answer 2

Usually pool pumps have a screw on fitting leading to and from the pump as well as a power chord leading to it. unscrew the fittings. and unplug it and pull it out. If the pump is lower then the level of the pool you may need to find a way to stop the water from escaping out of the pool if there is no valve between the pump and the pool. to install it repeat these instructions in reverse. These instructions refer to a text book scenario of coarse and may not necessarily apply in every situations as there are a lot of cowboys in the industry of setting up pools.
