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.

Where is the backwash knob located on the swimming pool pump?
The "backwash knob" - usually called the handle - is located on top of the filter or just to the side of the filter on a sand filter. They could be on the very bottom of the filter or to one side of the filter but never on the pump. The filter is the large tank.

How do you backwash the waste in your swimming pool?
Hi.. backwashing is pretty easy. you didn't mention if you have an inground or above ground or what type filter you use.. but, it's all basically the same thing. First, turn the pump off, then, set the backwash lever to open. Turn on the pump. Let it backwash the water for one minute. Turn the pump off and close the backwash lever. Turn on the pump and run for 20 seconds. Turn off the pump, open the lever again, backwash, turn off and then repeat the 20 second run cycle. Three full cycles like this will usually do the trick.

How do you construct a sprinkler system with the pool's backwash discharge?
I am in the process of developing the same idea. My thoughts are to get rain water collection barrels and fill them with the backwash and add pump that is fed by the barrels to generate enough pressure for a few sprinlkers.
Where does pool backwash go?
It goes out the backwash line. This is usually either plumbed into the line, and either goes into the sewer, or out on the ground. Some setups have a hose that you unroll, and attach to a port on the valve. I found my discharge by putting the handle on "backwash", turning the pump on, and looking around! Mine happened to go out into the back ditch. Took all of about 10 seconds to find it.
