Do you have a video that explains what tubes you connect where when replacing a pool pump? I have a new pump that came with extra parts and no explanation. Then I can move on to replacing the sand in the filter! which I've already cleaned out thanks to this video!!

I have a video on how to open your above ground pool where l show how to hook everything up for the season. If you have a sand filter with a multiport, each outlet on the valve is labeled. Look closely at each outlet from the valve and you will see in fine print on the side of each outlet the words pump, return and waste. This will tell you where each hose goes. Hopefully this will help. Here is a link to that video. Thanks for watching. kzbin.info/www/bejne/o6vJc2tql9mfZsU

my thru bolts are rusted solid. I cant move them for nothing. I cant tell exactly what kind of bit to use either. You said use a star bit, but mine look like allen head. I have to get them loose because the seal got hot and melted the back plate, also my impeller was stripped, so I have to replace both.

Nice

[@briskiriee6480]

What are symptoms that would lead to replacing the seals. Pump leaking or low flow?

[@HallmarkPoolSupplies]

Pump leaking, thanks for watching.

What should I do if water gets in to the pool pump motor ?

[@HallmarkPoolSupplies]

@@CASH.MILLIONAIRE Turn off the power to the motor, remove the back plate where the electric hooks up. Let the motor sit for at least a couple of days, you can even occasionally run a hair dryer on it. Once the motor is good and dry you will be able to try it. If it does not work then you will have to replace. If you need a pump or a motor l can help. Email your contact info, my email is on my KZbin channel. Thanks for watching.
