Why does your swimming pool pump work when you plug it the garage but when you hook to swimming pool does not work?

You should never run a swimming-pool pump dry! The most likely problem, from the rather flimsy evidence in your question hinting at it not rotating, is not with the pump or its motor but a fault in the electrical supply to the pool plant, or in the timer or other pump controller.


If you have an inground gunite pool that was drained using the pump why can't you develop suction to drain it out now that there is only a bit in the bottom?

Most electric pumps have a guard at the bottom to prevent leaves and such from getting into the pump. Unfortunately, you need to have usually about 1/2" to 1" of water in the pool for the pump to work. I would suggest trying to drain the remaining water with a hose.

How is an above ground pool pump different from an in ground pool pump?

In simplest terms, an above ground pool pump is a flooded suction pump, which means the water level must be higher than the pump for it to operate, and an inground pump has the ability to draw water up from a level lower than the pump. The engineering and structure of these two different types of pumps is what makes them work the way they do. This means that, in a typical installation, you could use an inground-specific pump on an above ground pool, but not an above ground pump on an inground pool with the water level below the pump.


Does a pool pump work harder when solar panels are added?

Pool Pumps are designed and built to work hard. You may create some additional back pressure by adding solar panels. as long as the pump is sufficient to fill the solar panels with water you should have no harm done by adding solar to your pool


Should an ingound pool filter be run at the same time as a pool heater or can you just run the heater alone?

Heaters are usually plumbed in after the filter. The pool filter/pump is what circulates the heated water. Ans: The heater will not work or fire if the pump is not running.


Can an in ground pool slide be used for an above ground pool?

Generally...no. In simplest terms, an above ground pool pump is a flooded suction pump, which means the water level must be higher than the pump for it to operate, and an inground pump has the ability to draw water up from a level lower than the pump. The engineering and structure of these two different types of pumps is what makes them work the way they do.

How much do above ground pools cost in comparison to in ground pools?
