**DO NOT** attempt to backwash/backflow a cartridge filter. You will destroy it if you do. Instead, you need to remove it from the canister and wash it per the manufacturer's directions.

Here's a video too:

No, the pump should not be noisy. It sounds like you have picked up a foreign object in the pump housing. you may have to pull the face off to determine. OR the pump/motor is indeed defective and should be returned.

SOURCE: Need help installing filter pump model 635 for my swimming pool

Just go to the Intex Corp link below. Choose the appropriate pool and/or pump. At the bottom of the page you will see a link for instructional manuals and videos. Hope that helps.

Oh yeah, by the way...you may want to start looking around for another pump for that pool if you plan on using it more than a year. I have had mine for 3 years and I spend more time in the pool vacumming than I do in the house!! The 635 pump is not strong enough for the 18x52 pool nor does it filter out fine silt and sand...it sucks it up and spits it right back into the pool thru the return. Good luck to you

Is there a pool supply place in your town? That would be a good place to inquire. You may wish to consider a FixYa.com advertiser if you would prefer.

How do you backflow a pool pump?

I assume you mean backwash the filter. The pump will always pump in one direction.

I am also assuming that you have a sand filter with a filter control valve.

If your filter's waste discharge needs a hose attached to route the discharge to a ditch or other suitable location, be sure to attach the hose before beginning this process.

Turn the pump off. Set the filter control valve to the backwash position. Turn the pump on and run for 30 sec to 1 minute until the water being discharged looks clear. If your filter control valve has a Rinse setting, turn the pump off, set it to Rinse and run the pump for about 30 sec. Turn the pump off. Set the Set the filter control valve back to Filter and turn the pump back on.

We can vacume the pool, run the backwash and then rinse and the pool will be fine, but when we shut the pump down for the night and turn it back on the next day with in a half hour there is a brown looking...

Sounds like there is an issue with the bottom drain. if it is set up to feed at the skimmer and is mostly clogged you may get this type of backflow. I would try putting your Vac Hose into its notmal location and connect the other side to the Gravity line for the bottom drain (also in the bottom of a skimmer) this may solve the issue permanantly if that is the issue. Next step is to have the bottom drain line Leak checked.

I'm trying to find a seal kit for a Emerson spa pump Model #T55MWCCE-1208

The seals are specific to the Jacuzzi pump housing not to the Emerson motor. Most Jacuzzi pumps use the PS-200 or PS-201 seal (some have it listed as AS-20X) here is a Pump Seal Cross Reference.

Need to know what kind of chemicals and chlorine tablets or what to add to the Krystal Clear Model 635 Filter Pump and where do they go. Manuel only talks about changing filter.

The chemicals are added to the pool or spa, not to the pump or filter. Get some basic knowledge on pool water treatment either by reading or going to a local pool / spa shop.

https://www.google.com/search?q=adding+chemicals+to+pool

When I worked at a municipal pool, we used Chlorine Gas in 4 foot steel bottles. It was evil stuff. You need test equipment so you don't over dose the water.

If it is backflowing, there is a small air leak somewhere in the sytem. It could be inthe pump, the heater, the filter, and unions, underground, etc.
Dont even bother looking for it as these can take a long time to find. Just buy a standard check vavle and plumb it in line. This should stop all backflow scenarios.

First time doing the backflow on my new pool. Now

You have something else going on if your in filter and getting DE back. The first thing to check is the spider gasket in the B/W valve. Pull the six, eight or ten screws that keep the top in place then pull the top out. If the gasket underneth is pulled out or stretched you can try to reset with silicone or just replace. Then be sure to have the pump off whenever you move the valve. This means be sure the pressure is all bled off when you move the valve, even just to push down on the handel.

Usually caused by a small air leak somewhere on the pressure side of the system. A check valve on the line coming out of the pump going to the filter will solve problem.
