  If your Bestway Swimming Pool isn't flowing water, several things could be the cause. First, ensure the stopper plugs have been removed and the debris screens are inserted. Make sure any trapped air has been released. Check that the control valve is set to the filter function, not closed. Also, inspect the strainer for blockages and clean it if necessary. If none of these steps work, the sand filter may be broken, requiring professional service.
