To put a pool pump on recirculate, locate the multiport valve on the filter system and turn it to the "Recirculate" setting. This bypasses the filter, allowing water to flow directly from the pool to the pump and back without going through the filtration system. Ensure the pump is turned off before making this adjustment, and then restart the pump after setting it to recirculate. This mode is often used for specific tasks, like adding chemicals or when the filter is being cleaned.

What is the difference between filter and recirculate on a pool pump?

First of I think you may be referring to the pool filter not the pump. "Filter" runs the water thru the filter thus filtering the water. Recirculate, I believe, bypasses the filter media and sends the water back to the pool unfiltered. K

Pool pump works on circulate but not on filteration?

How can one assess if his pool has a clog in the filter line and how does he fix it?

Check the psi on the filter tank? If its lower than usual there is something stuck in the lines or jammed in the pump impeller. If its higher than normal, it just needs to be cleaned. Also, if you put the multiport handle into the recirculate position, this will bypass the filter. If everything works better in recirculate then you have a filter problem

Why does water drain out when your pump is set to recirculate?

When a pump is set to recirculate, it typically draws water from one part of a system and sends it back into the same area without adding new water. If the pump is running but there is a drain or leak in the system, water can escape, leading to a drop in the water level. Additionally, if the system is not sealed properly, the recirculation can create negative pressure that encourages drainage. Thus, water may drain out even when the pump is set to recirculate.
