  • Backwashing and Rinsing your pool are very important to keeping your pool clean and filter running smoothly. In this video I show you set by set in how to backwash and rinse your intex pool. Below are the links for the hose and intex adapter I use when I backwash.

    Mind updating on the Vevor sand filter setup you reviewed a while back? I was thinking of getting it and see it’s not up on this video.

      Mine worked great with no issues. I got a new pump with my new intex so I went ahead and set it up and I’m keeping the Vevor as my back up. Now I have had a few people complaining that the Vevor was putting sand into the pool sometimes. But that’s the only negative feedback

    Do you know if you’re able to take off sight glass to clean algae that’s stuck to bottom of sight glass? We have the same exact pool, If not do you have a fix for this?

    Hi - Love your videos!!! Have you had to replace your pressure gauge? Mine stopped working and Id like to replace it. Followed your PVC plumb video and got that done-love it!!! Thank you!!!

    • @LifeLessOrdinary
      @LifeLessOrdinary  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      No I’ve never had any gauge issues but it would be very easy to replace

    How many times a week should I backwash? Also where dig you find that cap? I have looked all over lowes for that cap for the backwash. Ty

    • @LifeLessOrdinary
      @LifeLessOrdinary  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The cap I have came with my pump, and I backwash on average once a week

      I am planning on making like a basic maintenance video on what I do. Hopefully I can get it done soon. 👍🏼

    Does trash include stuff like pine needles? My back flushing didn't do so well last year.

    • @LifeLessOrdinary
      @LifeLessOrdinary  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yea it’s possible for pine needles to in for sure.

    You had a Vevor pump last year. Did it not last? I see you have another Intex pump.

    • @thinskin1112

      Disregard. I see you answered another comment

    Hi Do you cycle pump to FP when backwashing and rinsing?

  • @havoc_64
    @havoc_64 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    What pump did you use when you replaced the factory one?

    • @LifeLessOrdinary
      @LifeLessOrdinary  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Last year I used a Vevor pump and it worked great. This season I got a new pool and used the intex that came with it. But I’m keeping my old pump as a backup

  • @Bb74086
    @Bb74086 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Whats the part you are using through the pool now? The one you double clamp to the 3/4 pvc?

    what happened to the vevor pump?

    • @LifeLessOrdinary
      @LifeLessOrdinary  หลายเดือนก่อน

      I got a new pool this past spring so I used the new pump. I still have the vevor in my shop as my backup

    What’s the best vacuum for the pool I can’t find a good one at all

    • @LifeLessOrdinary
      @LifeLessOrdinary  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      What type of vacuum are you looking for and what is your budget?

  • @TheChillStart
    @TheChillStart 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Its weird for me, i would back wash and rinse for like 1:30 to 2 minutes each and when i switch down to filter just today, it spat out brown water. Broke me completely

    • @LifeLessOrdinary
      @LifeLessOrdinary  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      My filter is brand new, could definitely be different for each pump 👍🏼

  • @cdroz
    @cdroz 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    How often do you backwash?

    • @LifeLessOrdinary
      @LifeLessOrdinary  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I would say twice week on average 👍🏼

    • @cdroz
      @cdroz 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks I've had my pool for two weeks and didn't understand why pump was so low. This fixed.

    • @LifeLessOrdinary
      @LifeLessOrdinary  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @cdroz awesome

  • @fmesha
    @fmesha 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    water does not come out that fast for me from the backwash... it just trickes out... and if i dont close the left hose where the water shoots out from sand goes into the pool.....

    • @LifeLessOrdinary
      @LifeLessOrdinary  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Very odd sounds like the pump is definitely having issues. How old is it ?

    • @fmesha
      @fmesha 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@LifeLessOrdinary it’s been that way since I got it two years ago.. perhaps it’s not set up properly?

    • @LifeLessOrdinary
      @LifeLessOrdinary  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @fmesha it’s possible something definitely sounds off.
