    It looks like the voice is coming from inside the pipe!
    That’s give more personality to the instructions. (Like, who knows better than your pool filter pipes) I love it 😃👍

    This was close enough to my extremepower filter to help me out on placement of the o-ring. The extremepower was very inexpensive but it did not come with any detailed instructions. Thank goodness for youtube and thanks inyo pools for posting this video!

    How do you know that the clamp are enough tightened? I see that you are leaving a gap between the two. They dont join together. What gap should i leave. One inch?

    Love the invisible silicone lubricant that was applied @ 3:10 😁. Great video regardless!

    A lot of sand filters have the multi port valve separately from the filter.

    Do you have to remove pipping? Can you do it without cutting? I don’t have connections and just pipping and hoping I can change the ring without cutting. I have to change my o-ring and it seems like a big job to cut the pipping.

      The valve and filter shown in the video are the SP0714T top mount valve, ad the Hayward Pro Series Top Mount sand filter. The O-ring we changed is the 6-3/4" ID, 3/16" for Hayward, Jacuzzi Pumps and Filters - 47036447R - www.inyopools.com/Products/07501352023079.htm

      @Inyopools hi which link is for the clamp O ring replacement for sand filter?

    If the o ring is bad would it be letting sand into the pool?

      No, the o-rings on the filter and valve aren't the last barrier keeping sand from your return. If you see the sand in the pool, one of your laterals may be cracked. The laterals are the last barrier between the filter tank sand and your pool.

    Seeing where it sat and gapping before collar went on would be handy.

    If my Flange Clamp is leaking and I want to check if the o-ring is damaged, is there a risk that once I unscrew the flange clamp, the water will start coming out?

      Open the valve at the bottom of the filter to let the water and pressure out first before u begin

    I just bought a house with one of these cheap filters. Same leak, same place. I slowed it down with flex seal. I am gonna replace it with a real filter. Obviously a manufacturing deffect.

      Check that filter is level. If its not it will leak

    I just changed out the sand in my filter. Everything went smoothly until it was time to put the metal collar clamp back on. It's like the multiport valve was sitting too high when I placed it back onto the sand container. I had to get my brother to help push the top section down as I barely got the clamp to secure. Then, of course, I went to backwash after seemingly everything was finished to find water leaking from the collar area. O-ring was on the multiport valve, but was not inspected. What could be the issue? Is it normal when replacing the multiport back onto the sand container that it can sit kinda high, like it's not seated completely?

    If you open the drain valve wont the sand come out of the filter and get on the threads of the drain valve.

      The sand filter's drain assembly has a screen that looks similar to the filter's laterals. The screen perforated case prevents the sand from pouring out. - MGS

      Why open it, what’s the benefit?

    • @maryl5021
      @maryl5021 Рік тому

      It will decrease the pressure in the tank and drain the water too
