If that will work then, yes. Most inflatables have no fittings that are compatible with a garden hose fitting. K
Siphon it out. You can create a siphon by either sucking really hard on one end of the garden hose while the other end is under water, or the easier way, with 2 garden hoses as follows: -Get 2 garden hoses. Hook one to the spigot, put it in the pool and turn it on. set the other hose up with one end in the pool, and the other wherever you want to drain the water to. -Hold the ends of the 2 hoses that are in the pool, together with your hands, so the spigot water runs through the 2nd hose. Pull them apart, and you will feel the suction pulling the water out of your pool through the empty hose. -Take the hose that is connected to the spigot, out of your pool, and turn the spigot off. -Make sure the other garden hose does not fall out of the pool, or you will lose suction and have to start all over again! -When you get towards the bottom, you will have to physically hold the hose and move it around to get the water out without losing suction. You have to have the end of the hose that the water is running out of below the level of the bottom of the pool. You can do it with on.y one hose. Put one end of the hose in the pool and connect the other end to the faucet and turn it on until the air is forced from the hose. If the faucet is below the pool just disconnect the hose and lay it on the ground. You can move it around as long as the end of the hos estays below the top of the water. If the faucet is above the water level have someone put thier finger over the end of the hose in the pool while you move the end of the hose to a spot below the bottomof the pool.
Garden Hose, your own or neighbors?
Syphon - ensure the bottom of the pipe is lower than the top, suck the water through and it will keep flowing. A standard 3/4" hose will take a LONG time to drain a large pool, but you can use multiple hoses...
To drain a pool properly and efficiently, locate the drain valve at the bottom of the pool and attach a hose to it. Make sure the hose is long enough to reach a safe drainage area. Open the valve and let the water drain slowly to avoid damaging the pool structure. Monitor the water level and adjust the flow as needed. Once the pool is drained, close the valve and remove the hose.
Suck it out with a piece of garden hose or a piece of tubing
The intake hose on a pool is typically used during cleaning. It is usually located inside the skimmer area. The drain at the bottom of the pool can also take in water.
siphon It out with a cut garden hose..
To efficiently drain your pool using a pool pump, you can connect a hose to the pump's outlet and direct the other end of the hose to a suitable drainage area. Make sure the pump is set to the "drain" or "backwash" mode, and turn it on to start draining the water. Monitor the process to ensure the water is being pumped out effectively and adjust the hose as needed to maintain efficient drainage.
To efficiently drain water from your pool, you can use a submersible pump or a siphon hose. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions and local regulations when draining water from your pool.
I used a wet vacuum (shop vac) to suck out the rest of the water. It took awhile (numerous 10 gallon canisters worth) but it also vacuumed up the debris so the pool was nice and clean when done.
My yard slopes a little bit. I take a garden hose or lately, my vacuum hose and run water in from the outside end until the hose is completely full. I drain it to the lowest part of my yard. You can stop running water in when no more bubbles come out into the pool. I secure a heavy wrench onto the pool end of the hose to keep it underwater. This will drain the majority of the pool. Then I have a small fish pond pump that I use for the rest of the water. This is very slow, I imagine if you have a pump to remove water from a cover, it would work as well. Good luck.
