Pool Pumps - Everything You Need to Know




The pool pump is the component that gets the water in the pool moving – without it, your pool water would get stale, dirty and unsafe to bathe in. The pump in your pool is the piece of equipment that pulls the water from the pool, passes it through the filters and returns it to the pool after it has been filtered.
Pool pumps, whether simple or sophisticated, consist of three main components: an electric motor that uses either 110 V or 220 V and rotates at around 3,500 RPM; an impeller connected to the end of the motor’s shaft to move the water and a hair and lint trap toward which the impeller directs the water. The system includes a pressure gauge as well.
The most common problem encountered with pool pumps is clogging, the easiest to recognize sign of the issue being reduced pressure and a decreased amount of water flowing back into the pool.
