That depends upon which type of pump you have. In any case you would have to turn off the pump and make sure it will not come on while you are servicing the pump.

If it is a StaRite pump you may need a lid removal tool. There are a few different ways that a pump lid can be loosened, removed, tightened or secured. Some screw on, some are just placed into position and secured with a clamp or wing nuts.

Hayward has both screw on and press on lids.

StaRite has both - - - as do most manufacturers. If you have not serviced the o-ring on your pump for a while it will be difficult to remove a screw on lid without specialty tool to do that.

How do you bachwash a hayward pool pump?

You don't backwash a pump, you backwash sand and D.E. Filters. To clean them you change your valve to the backwash setting. To clean a pump basket you turn off the pump, open the lid and pull the pump basket out, dump the contents and place it back into the pump and replace the cover. You may or may not need to prime the pump before you turn it back on.

What are the principles of basket type strainer selection and application range?

Basket type strainer selection principles. 1、Import and export passage diameter In principle, the import and export diameter of the strainer should not be smaller than the inlet diameter of the matching pump, generally consistent with the inlet pipe diameter. 2、Nominal pressure Determine the pressure level of the strainer according to the possible high pressure of the filtration line. 3、The selection of the number of holes Mainly consider the impurity particle size to be intercepted, according to the process requirements of the media process. Various specifications screen can intercept the size of the particle size of the following table "screen specifications". 4、strainer material. The material of the strainer is generally chosen to be the same as the connected process pipeline material, for different service conditions can be considered to choose cast iron, carbon steel, low alloy steel or stainless steel strainer material. 5、Strainer resistance loss calculation Water strainer, in the general calculation of the rated flow rate, the pressure loss of 0.52 ~ 1.2kpa. Basket type strainer is also relatively simple in terms of cleaning, the general workflow is like this, when the stream enters the basket type strainer than the screen after the larger particles are intercepted, and filtered cleaner stream will be discharged from the screen, need to clean, only need to remove the cartridge, a simple rinse can be, this efficient and simple basket type strainer, in This highly efficient and simple basket type strainer is widely used in petroleum, chemical, pharmaceutical, food, environmental protection and other industries.HUHANG TECHNOLOGY GROUP CO., LTD

How and how often should you clean the strainer basket that sits next to the sand filter?

There is a gauge on the filter that will indicate this. when as the pressure gets higher it indicates that there is a build up of dirt and the filter needs cleaning or backwashing. another indicator is if you note a marked reduction in suction at the static skimmer of the pool.

What is the proper way to vacuum a pool?

Start by brushing any debris towards the main drain in the bottom of the pool. Next, connect the vacuum head to the telescopic pole and the vacuum hose to the skimmer or designated vacuum port. Submerge the vacuum head and slowly move it across the pool floor in a systematic pattern to ensure thorough cleaning. Remember to empty the pump basket and clean the filter afterwards.


Can you garnish cake with powdered sugar?

Yes, beautifully too. You can use a flour sifter, or a basket strainer with a handle, these are both smaller in size. Put your confectioner (powdered) sugar into this, hold over the cake and gently sift the sifter or shake the basket strainer around it. MAKE SURE YOUR CAKE IS COMPLETELY COOLED. Very important. Or it melts like snow flakes.
