Thank you for the step by step instructions, I have searched videos and nobody showed how it was hooked up to create suction they were just saying to hook up skimmer..Bless you man!
I just tried this, THANK YOU!!!! It really works. I've been trying to run into a Video that can help me out.
I have the same pool, I added a sand filter and skimmer. I bought a skimmer on Amazon and it made such a difference
Good Voice, easy approach and as a new pool owner picked up some valuable tips
I am stuck with my pool vacuum because the hose just doesn't fit into any of the hole in the pool and this video saves my day. Thank you very very much!
Best vid on this topic. I was about to give up. Thanks!!
Hello. I posted a question on your Jeep video and it posted twice. I was wondering if you could send me the info or website on where you got the top hat, or hood scope for your jeep 5.9 Thanks!!!
Thanks for the tip. I already have all of these items. Never thought to use em this way. Gonna give it a shot tomorrow.

Great video! I like how you set your pool up. Do you drain it during the winter? Next year, I'm going to buy the pool you have.
Best video. Even works on my original filter that came with pool. Thanks

Hey, Stephanie, what size hose do you have? 1.25" or 1.5"? Please help.
Curious to know if you drain it too.
Thanks I won a bet on hooking the vacuum hose and head to this filter.
I needed one of these holy scrap. I have the plugs three to reach underwater and plug from inside just to unscrew then clean out damaged filter...the placement of the intake ports are ridiculous as well as the return all 4 inches below the 48 inches total height ..I don't get it...the lump I upgraded and the first year I didn't use it duri ng the winter plugged it back in late spring and frozen it would him but no dice I unplugged it and took back off well nevermind long process..How do you heat your pool?
Do ya jump into the pool from the trampoline?
I have the exact same pool as you I actually bought the HTH hose I have everything electrical taped together but the hose is just not sucking the water to the pump is there any suggestion on how you got that hth tube to fill all the way up with water to the filter pump hose. It's like it's not getting a good enough suction to filter out. I got it to work for about 5 mins. Then stopped like if it had air.
where was the pump bought at?
How do I calculate adding chlorine to my new intex pool?
Damn that shit looks clean. Bad ass setup man
how do you get the water that in the pool hose to staying while attaching to pump hose???
What's the trick to keeping the sand filter pump primed for suction?
Hi, what brand of sand pump is it? I’m currently researching which sandpump would be best for our summerwaves 15ft x36” above ground pool. Thanks!
I have a quick question. I love how you have rock all around the edge of the pool. Did you have any issues with rubbing a hole info the pool.

That's what I have set up kinda but I don't vacuum on filter I vacuum on waste and have a long waste hose that goes way out my yard cause a lot of water will come out ... but algae particles are sooooo small so fine they will pass right through your pump ... nice video
What type of Sand Filter set up is this? Yours came with a new pump for that amount?
Where did u get the vacuum hose 30feet from pls. Nice video
Another guy on youtube says that you have to set it to waste (lose the water) to get rid of the algae because some can pass thru the filter and back into the pool. Do you have a often recurring problem with the algae?
Great video! Thanks for the info
Grt video Is really helpful..
On the inside of your intake hose, is it 1 1/2 all tge way through? Mine starts at 1 1/2, the like an inch inside becomes something smaller.
Excellent video. Thanks.
Excellent ! Works Great. thanks;)
What size are the ends of your blue hose? 1.25? or 1.5?
hello, what is the black think (time 1:58) and where can i buy it, thx
Can you please tell me what kind of pump that is and what HP? We are trying to find one but you failed to mention what brand and hp.
Love the video, where and what the the valve called to keep water from running out when switching hoses? Where to buy?? Thank you!

It's called a plunger valve. I bought a set of 2 off Amazon for under $30.
I was wondering what you did with your second intake port? I have same pool size and brand. But I have two intakes and only saw one on your pool in the video. Do you have two intakes or just one? If two did you use the black plugs to stop it up?

Sure vacuuming via the waste selection discharges a lot of water but not much I'm done in and hour and lose a couple inches or more depending on dirt in pool but what a difference vacumming on waste does ...
Awesome video
Can u do a video on how to connect a pool pump like the one u have. Step by step plz
What size sand filter did you purchase?
I, too, am wondering, is your house a 1.25" or a 1.5"?? What brand, too, if you don't mind? Great video!!! Just what I've been looking to do!!!
You don't have a skimmer on your pool?
I have a sand pump. But where did you get those shut off attachments for out water and in water??? We don't have those on ours.

My filter keeps losing pressure awhile I'm vacuuming it. Why?
what is the pool vacuum head?
When you are vacuuming you leave the pump on filter mode, not waste or backwash?

+gileadlane yes you would want to keep it on filter that way it returns the clean water back into the pool. The other two setting would let water drain out of the pool. You backwash after you vacuum
But this water is so clear and amazing
What type of pump is that did you upgrade to it how well does it work ??

It's a sand filter pump. From all my research most people are switching over to them. The one that comes with the pool isn't much.
so the filter is collecting the dirt even though water is still being discharged to the pool? if so your a genius cause I been trying to figure out how to vacuum by pool

I think I might have a better idea... Take the same essential setup but with smaller hose and attach it to the outflow side while keeping the bag attached. So... instead of having the garden hose stretched to the pool (Which I'm not fond of) the pressure will come from the pump AND you won't have all that garbage to deal with getting into your filter system. Whether sand, cartridge, or DE the less the better.
I use the same vacuum system but for some reason what I vacuum up is being blown right back in my pool its like the filter is not catching it.. what am I doing wrong??

Are you using the filter pump that came with the pool? If so, maybe the filter cartridge needs cleaned or changed.

If you have 2 inlet holes, you need to use the little hat thing to cap off the second hole. Unscrew the part inside the pool with all the filter holes and the cap fits right over where the water runs through. Screw the cap back on then. This will give you pressure from just the one hole your vacuum is connected to.
Great vid! I'm gonna try it your way and I have all the same equipment you have, so it should work. Thanks!!
Is ur pool salt water
THANKS
I tried this exact procedure and for some reason, the other end of my vacuum hose wouldn't fit inside the white hose (The one velcroed to the frame). The inside diameter wasn't large enough for some reason. I'm using a larger pump (Intex 2650 GPH) and I think the hose is 1 1/2". Not sure why your is working and mine won't. I figured all the vacuum hoses were the same. It was a very close fit but not enough. Anyone know why it wouldn't work?

If you take the basket looking cover off the intake the hose will suck into the intake and you can use it. That guy just wasted his money and time.

@Casper Brown Thanks for your response! I'm not sure what you're saying and would like to have a better understanding. Are you talking about the screw on cover that looks like a grill? We have 2 of those except one of them is connected to a skimmer basket. When you remove the grey cover, it's a plastic blue piece that connects to the hose on the outside of the pool. The center of that piece is a grid type thing (for lack of a better word) preventing larger objects from passing, I'm guessing? My setup may be different from yours.

I have the same pool as in the video. A 24' one. I can unscrew the grid looking intake cover off and insert the blue hose directly into the tube behind it and the suction hold it in. Then I put a hand weight on the end of the hose and lay it on the bottom center of the pool. It then collects all of the debris that collects in the center of the pool bottom overnight. Wish I had a pool skimmer but made one out of a tupperware tub and a pool noodle that also connects to the hose.

I got my hose atLowe's and the pooled vacuum head, I attached it to the intake of the pool by sawing off the screen wich gets clogged by hair and large level works great for me no problems I hope this helps.
