  If your Bestway Swimming Pool Filter has no water flow, several factors could be responsible: 1. Ensure that the stopper plugs have been removed and the debris screens are correctly inserted. 2. Release any trapped air within the system. 3. Confirm that the control valve is properly set to the filter function, not closed. 4. Check the strainer for blockages and clean it thoroughly. 5. If these steps do not restore water flow, the sand filter may be broken, requiring professional service.
