How do you increase pool pump pressure?

Pool pump pressure is essential for keeping your pool clean and healthy. If your pump pressure is low, it can lead to a number of problems, including:

  • Poor circulation
  • Dirty water
  • Algae growth
  • Equipment damage

There are a few things you can do to increase pool pump pressure:

  1. Clean the pump filter. A dirty filter can restrict water flow and reduce pump pressure. Clean the filter according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  2. Check the pump impeller. The impeller is the part of the pump that moves water. If the impeller is damaged or clogged, it can reduce pump pressure. Inspect the impeller for damage and clean it if necessary.
  3. Check the pump hoses. The hoses that connect the pump to the pool can become clogged or kinked, which can restrict water flow and reduce pump pressure. Inspect the hoses for damage and kinks, and replace them if necessary.
  4. Adjust the pump speed. The speed of the pump can be adjusted to increase or decrease pump pressure. If your pump pressure is low, try increasing the pump speed.
  5. Call a pool professional. If you've tried all of the above and you're still having problems with low pump pressure, it's time to call a pool professional. A qualified pool professional can diagnose the problem and make the necessary repairs.
