I just bought and installed a new intelliflo variable speed pump and now my Hayward pool sweep does not move to the shallow end. It only cleans the deep end and even that is not cleaned well. It seems to do a similar pattern over and over with not much variance. It worked fine with the old single speed pump. Ron

Thank you for posting your question here on Fixya.com.


It is a pressure side cleaner...the booster pump only boosts the main pumps output pressure so much. Lowering the main pump output, the booster WILL NOT compensate by increasing its output. Lowering the pressure to the cleaner head will cause what you describe. Turn the new pump up to full speed to clean the pool then down lower to circulate water for chemical balance and maintenance.

New XtremepowerUS 2HP In-Ground Swimming Pool Pump Variable Speed 2 Inlet 230V High Flo w/ Slip-On Fitting, i turned it on after 2 mins switch from high to low then shut off and get very hot.

All electric motors run hot and pool pumps are no different. But how hot is too hot for a pool pump? The first test is simply whether you can touch the motor or not. Under normal operating conditions, the motor end of the pump is hot enough that you can barely touch it - but not searing hot.

Best to you.

Yesterday, I noticed that the Hayward pool sweep wasn't moving, nor was there any water flowing from the outlets in the pool. I cleaned both baskets - nothing. I installed 4 brand new cartridge filters -...

A pump motor running without any flow of water is one of two things. The impeller inside the pump that is connected to the motor is broken or clogged. Open up the pump and inspect the impeller for debris or seperation and clean or replace as needed.
