Vacuuming your Above Ground Intex Pool with the Hayward Skimmer and how to backwash your pool.
In this video, we will show you how easy it is to hook up an Intex vacuum hose with a standard vacuum head to your Hayward Skimmer. It is super easy to keep your pool clean with very minimal effort and time needed to get the job done fast.
In addition, we will show you the proper steps to backwash your above-ground pool after you vacuum.
We have links at the bottom of this description for what we are using in this video. You can always use different brands and lengths of pool vacuum hoses as long as they fit the Hayward vacuum adapter part. Also, you can purchase different styles of vacuum heads to vacuum around the rounded edges.
The Intex plunger valve is a handy part of connecting the backwash hose.
Also, check out our link for the Skimmer Socks they are helpful for drawing in even finer pieces of debris into the skimmer that can sometimes get through your skimmer basket.

INTEX | SALTWATER CHLORINATOR SYSTEM ECO6110 - 30 DAY REVIEW - SALT WATER LIFE
Mover and Shaker I’m really thinking about going this route for next spring 2025 as we just lowered the water below our return for our INTEX 16x48 ultra frame for the winter and covered it yesterday. I have some questions as far as the filter and pump. Did you replace both sand filter and pump ? We’re still using the smaller INTEX 26 lb sand tank and 2100 gph pump that came with pool in 2020. But as you mentioned the flow is much better especially going from 1.25 intake to 2 inch but now is your return at the pump 2 inch too ?is the pump hardwired or do you plug it into outlet? How much sand does the filter take? In your other video I like how you doubled up the top hats to seal off the original intakes. I also want to vacuum through the skimmer as you. Your set up looks nice and clean and more efficient with the upgrade. We too have tried the INTEX hanging skimmer basket but just doesn’t get the flow with that 1.25 single opening. Can you provide the amount the pump,filter&skimmer upgrade cost? Again always love your tips ideas and suggestions!!
She is beauty when ever I look at her it just makes me wanna steel her 2:33pm
how did you plug up your outlet and inlet valves? with the black plugs or the screw on caps?

So, I don't have a hdmi connection, I was told I need an adapter and a converter because on the back of my computer I only have room for the 2nd monitor showing only a display connection. So my question is, do I need the adapter and converter (display)?
@alicebrown7750 I think you may need something like this or similar. amzn.to/3Tu7kpc. We are not really savvy with the older displays but just like cell phone charges back in the day, they make adapters male and female that can connect to hdmi. We wish we coukd ne of more be more help but this is the general idea, look in the very bottom of the product descriptions for a pictured diagram
What sound with the original inlet holes?
Can you rephrase your question?

@@Ghurst2002 I use amzn.to/4eerCeV these on the inside and the outside. The outside is mainly for aesthetic purposes but it's really not needed.
thanks you should consider updating monitor amazon link to a new monitor.
@TheMomentEnds1 Most monitors, these days have the h d m I hookups, so it's basically a general guide? What was your suggestion for anything in particular?
Did you build your deck? Also, what material did you put down closest to the pool liner before you put rock around your pool?
@VeronicaCook-uy7tx Now we did not build our deck, we hired someone to build it. 8 x 10. For 1600.00 The only thing we've ever put besides rock around the edges was rubber mulch.
Question...have you ever gotten white mold? Looks like clear jellyfish in my saltwater pool. Wondering where it comes from and if you have ever experienced it. not sure how to get rid of it.
Not yet...look at this article. It has different sections with different tips. www.google.com/search?q=white%20mold%20pool%20treatment&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-b-1-m
@@MoverandShaker thanks...I think i got it covered. One more question, I live in Minnesota and dread taking mine down every winter. Do you think it's ok to just winterize it and leave it up? I have watched videos using a pool pillow and a cover, but I'm not sure if in this climate that will destroy my pool or not. it is a 16' intex pool similar to yours.
The description says that it will accommodate a human companion. Can you make half of the front half (unzip? and) fold down so a human can put their legs in the usual position?
@debrathornley2974 You can take the strap off of Either of the front seats and you can also take the strap off of one of the back seats' headrest and just simply pull out a white tube that holds it down in the seat and just scrunch it over for someone to get in on the other side. We don't know of any other way than this
@@MoverandShaker Thanks!
@debrathornley2974 you're welcome
The 2 pieces in the pool that is suppose to suck up the dirt in the pool, the holes are to small for anything to go. I have to use my net 4 times a day to get up any bugs, leaf or dirt.
Actually, no, that is not true. There are hoses and adapters that can fit those and connect to vacuums however if you have an outboard Skimmer, then you use the vacuum attachments.Directly from the skimmer From the outside. We also have a robotic vacuum that is chargeable. It runs forever. It was one of the best investments we ever made Because it will take care of the bottom, and when we get in, we take care of the top with a net and it's all good.
Que guarde esa piscina
I’ve tried vacuuming with mine but can’t seem to keep the air out of the pump. Maybe the pump isn’t strong enough to hold my vacuum plate in the skimmer? Any tips on this would be welcome. Before anyone asks, yes, I ensure all air is out of my hose/vacuum head prior to vacuuming. TIA
Please make sure you are holding the vacuum connection down as you turn the pump on. Yeah, that's the only thing I could think of. Our pump is a sixteen inch three thousand gallon.
Thanks for these videos. They’re so helpful for me. In regards to the pump itself, do you empty the sand out of it or do any other process of trying to remove all water from within the big basin? I imagine it’s extremely heavy with a ton of wet sand in there…and then I also wonder about storing it with wet sand inside. Thoughts?
I usually leave the sand in the pump and I open the bottom drain and let it drain completely and leave it as such.And then just cover the top hole of the pump with saran wrap or foil Just enough to keep the bugs in the air out. We use a dolly to cart it to the shed.
Thank you for making this so easy!
Only if you put rocks in it so it dosnt just float in the top and everything go around it
What's your pool sizes?
I've seen several people who added the skimmer and a T to have all 3 run to the filter.
Yes, we have seen that setup. Our setup seems to work really well as is. We like the bigger hoses as opposed to an inch and a quarter.
I finally added skimmer works really well . At first, the piece that goes to the pool wouldn't come off, so i had to get a flat head screw driver and work the two sides of valve which finally came off and was able to attach the skimmer.
@@alcarmona7959 AWESOME! Glad you have it up and running good.
How do i hook up skimmer if i only have pump an hole that just puts water back into pool
Hello ,first of all great job. But how do you perform the aspiration? where do you connect the aspiration hose? Thank you
How fast does it move? It looks like it’s pretty slow. How does it do over “wrinkles” in the liner? Thanks for taking the time to make the video
It does move a little slow. It does a good job vacuuming. However, an outboard skimmer is highly recommended as it works so much faster and does a better job overall. It works fine on the wrinkles, we honestly eventually switched to this more expensive amzn.to/3zIc6Z5 and model of vacuum Because it's easier to set up, considering all you have to do is charge it and drop it in. I think we have had it in our pool over a hundred times it's still doing great.
I was going go with salt water for my inground pool system,.. However I strong advise AGAINST IF U HAVE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE!!! Other than that it’s great!!
Do you have a link for the piece you used to connect the 2” hose to the pre filter basket? Great video, thank you. I am putting up the same pool for the first time and want to start off by adding the skimmer.
Yo I love this I’m about to get one
Which intex pump do you have? Do you like it?
The one that we purchased is now sold out. But we have a sixteen inch three thousand gallon per hour pump And it looks and it is similar to this model right here, which is the latest amzn.to/3zHgyr6 And we love this pump, it Kicks a** It is more than enough for 18 x 52
@@MoverandShaker do I need to drain my existing water if I get one of these chlorinators?
@jasondunbar3667 Absolutely not! Before you're chlorinator is ever boosting for the first time. You have to make sure your pool is balanced.It can take up to a week. If you live near a pool star, take some water up to them and let them tell you what you need to bring it up to par. It will be like a recipe. Follow that recipe. Whether it takes 2 days or 4 days before you ever start to boost. Once you get through your boost cycle, you can then be. Operating full time with your chlorinator and not really have to worry about much at all.
Where do I get the backwash hose?
Hi! You can get one on Amazon here: amzn.to/3zOgDZY Another place woukd be your local pool store in your area.
Don you lose about a foot of water depth using that skimmer ?
4 to 6"
Why stop using the inlets??
Mainly because we only have one inlet into the pump. We just chose to go to the skimmer.To go straight to the skimmer. Do you have another suggestion?
@@MoverandShaker You guys have inspired me to do lots of cool stuff with my 24 foot XTR but I found a guy who did his skimmer a little different. So I just recently set it up like this: th-cam.com/video/hjfmicbxwtg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=YmfVP0B_yt04QreJ Gives you the option to use inlets, skimmer or all 3/2
I used to live in S. Florida and we had a saltwater pool. Saltwater systems are best for Florida in the sense that the Heavy rains we would get down there hardly affected the PH balance of the pool. Salt water systems really are a stress free way of maintaining ones pool
Hey! Quick question. How and where do you plug up both plugs?
Hey! Quick answer. They both go in one single exterior electrical receptacle.
My friend, i have that setup with a smaller sand filter. Im getting low flow readings on the salt system. What should i do?
Low flow problems occur when the water flow through the chlorinator is less than the minimum flow rate required for proper operation. This can be caused by a variety of factors such as a closed valve, a dying pump, clogged filters, or a blocked pipe. Did you ever make sure that the chlorinator did not require a certain specific size sand pump Gph wise. If the problem wasn't there before or it's just started for the first time on start up then I would definitely think your pump may not be strong enough.
Thanks so much! This made set up so much easier!
You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
I did everything but I still don’t have a water flow😢
You have a valve turned off?
What size is the square?
20 ft x 20 ft
How has your pool and saltwater pump been holding up? Im thinking of purchasing this exact same setup you have this will be my first pool we definitely need one for this 117° arizona heat 🥵
Excellent! No problem at all. Wow, 117! That is insane. Yes, get you one. It's worth it . It will last a long time. More than enough !
Our pool doesn't have that thing that you removed at the beginning of the video, so the hose adaptor doesn't have anything to attach/thread into, the water pretty much comes out of the pool. I'm not sure if there is a part that can be purchased for this.
The strainer whole baskets Which are like a cover that has a grid? Comes with the pool, usually 2 in the box. Here is a link...amzn.to/3LqaMNn
We also used these or similiar on the outside of the pool to keep the hoses tight against the two white pipes pipes. amzn.to/4eL5Hws
Thank you. I will try this!
How long did the frame hold up after switching to salt?
It still holding up very nicely. By the pump, there is a post and by the footer. There is some rust about 2 inches by 1 inch. We will apply paid wrap to that we aren't too worried at all.
@@MoverandShaker that's good news! Thank you for sharing!
@danielchamorro1288 You're welcome and I just want to add that. We are very meticulous that we wash off every bit of salt. After we get out of our pool, it takes about ten minutes, but it's worth it so that it can air dry salt free.
Question .. is it ok to add cyanuric acid while the salt intex chlorinator is on ? Heard people say use sock method ..have you ever added it directly in skimmer ?
I don't usually have the chlorinater running when I'm adding chemicals. I don't usually add shock directly to the skimmer. I usually add it around the pool, trying to spread it out evenly and if needed use your brush to dissolve any leftover product.
@@MoverandShaker so it’s not shock it’s stabilizer cyanric acid which keeps sun from burning away chemicals..supposedly it’s low on my pool but I currently have boost mode on until tomorrow so thinking I shouldn’t add it until it’s off ?
@ceecee2861 I would finish the boost and then add cya
@@MoverandShaker ok thanks ! Still trying to get used to the whole salt process
@ceecee2861 yes once you get it straight, you should be home free. It Gets easier each year
I LOVE YOU AND YOUR WIFE CHANNEL! Quick question just purshased a Intex 3000 sand filter. We had 3 days of storms and no we have no power. Well it did come on after about 35 min and ran for 4 hours than shit off and no power again. Looked at than pushed reset over and over came on and shut off. Have any idea what might be causing this? Only a week old. Frustrating
Am o supposed to feel suction near the brushes underneath because I don’t. Only the water jet coming out the back
It has to be submerged in the water for the suction to work properly and in motion.
@@MoverandShaker thanks, I wasn’t sure how positive pressure would create suction but it does. I read if I add cotton balls to the inside of the mesh it’ll catch fine particles better
@stevenweede7184 good idea! Thanks
Our hose that comes with the skimmer crushes on itself? Do I need to get a stronger hose or is that another issue?
I'm not sure what you could possibly mean. We used only the hoses that came with the skimmer and nothing else with no problems.
This skimmer works great, i have one. Question, i had to change pools for this year but the top metal tube (where the skimmer clamps to) is not flat and not round. Because of this, the skimmer will not sit right. Anyone run into this and what did you do to make an adjustment to make it work? Thank you!
We have never had an issue Attaching our skimmer to the top metal support On the intex round pool. Are you referring to a new pool brand that you are using?;
We just added the skimmer to our pool and it started leaking around the outside corner ..we then put the flex paste and it was fine until this morning ..started leaking again ..we will try to add more ..did you have to add more after your first leak ?
Sorry to hear that. No we realized we shoukd have never cut our gasket in half as it was a butterfly gasket that was meant to go partially in and out but yes we sealed everything up on the outside only with kitchen and bath clear silicone and it held ever since.
@@MoverandShaker oh ok yea we didn’t cut the gasket at all , hopefully another coat of the silicone helps ..where do you have your water line ? Should it be halfway line of skimmer opening ? Noticing air getting in the tubes and we thought water level was ok
What's the black material under your pool?
You may be referring to remnants of black rubber mulch. We used to have that around our pool. If you take a look at our very first pull video. We got rid of that and replaced it with rocks Weather is an inch or so that you can still see
Very detailed video. I have a question. Did your pool frame rust since changing to salt water?
On one of the support, poles closest to the pump near the black plastic footer, We have an area this year that we will be treating. It does not concern us too much.
What dimension is the pool, im from Europe and i did not see a pool like this ever. Thanks

Do you need a pump/filter in addition to the Intex Krystal clear saltwater system?
Yes, But in some cases, they are sold as combo units
How did you close the existing holes? I have the plugs but I need something more permanent
There is no need for anything permanent. We've had those plugs in there, and they have not failed us one bit. They work perfectly
I have a printer I haven’t opened until now which is a officejet 4500 wireless bundle edition. Would you say the ink cartridge in it is safe to use?
I would definitely shake it up, just to make sure the ink gets moving a little bit before you pop it in. I'm not sure why it would be unsafe. I do know that HP is starting to get very smart and you can no longer use expire cartridges. Because they realize so many people getting away with it. They've developed technology. Now To prevent it.
