If the Intex Water Pump filter motor fails to start, ensure the line cord is plugged into a 3-wire outlet protected by a Class A Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter, or RCD. Also, reset the GFCI/RCD circuit breaker; if it repeatedly trips, have an electrician check your electrical system. Finally, if the motor is too hot, let it cool down before restarting.
What to do if my Intex ECO15220-2 filter doesn’t pump water or flow is very slow?
If your Intex Water Pump filter doesn’t pump water or the flow is very slow, check for clogged inlets or discharge and clear any obstructions in the intake hose. Also, look for air leaks on the intake line, tightening hose nuts and checking for damage. Clean the pre-filtering basket more often if the pool is excessively dirty. Backwash the filter if the sand media is clogged with dirt. Ensure the nozzle and strainer connections are correctly installed and remove about 1” of sand if there's crusting. Remove any pool vacuuming devices attached to the system line. Finally, ensure the inlet threaded air connector is connected to the pool inlet upper hole.
What to do if my Intex ECO15220-2 Water Pump doesn’t work?
If the Intex Water Pump doesn’t work, ensure the pool is filled to the correct water level. Clean the strainer screens at the pool inlet. Check for air leaks on the intake hose, and tighten hose nuts, inspecting the hose for damage. If these steps don't resolve the issue, contact the Intex service center, as the motor may be faulty or the impeller jammed.
How to troubleshoot an Intex ECO15220-2 Water Pump filter that doesn’t clean pool?
If your Intex Water Pump filter isn’t cleaning the pool, adjust the chlorine and pH levels. Load the tank with filter sand according to the “sand loading instructions”. Ensure the 6-way valve is set to the “FILTER” position. Operate the filter for longer periods if the pool is excessively dirty. Clean the strainer screen at the inlet to ensure it is not restricting water flow.
Why is the timer inaccurate or can't be set on my Intex ECO15220-2?
If the timer on your Intex Water Pump is inaccurate or cannot be set, turn off the pump and restart it 5 minutes later. Also, try re-setting the timer. If the issue persists, contact the Intex service center.
How to fix a leaking hose on my Intex Water Pump?
If your Intex Water Pump hose is leaking, first, ensure the hose nut is securely tight. If the leak persists, check that the hose connection fitting o-ring/L-shape o-ring is in place and not damaged.
Why is sand flowing back into my Intex ECO15220-2 Water Pump?
If sand is flowing back into the pool from your Intex Water Pump, ensure you are using only No. 20 silica sand with a particle size range of 0.45 to 0.85 mm (0.018 to 0.033 inches) and a Uniformity Coefficient less than 1.75. If the sand bed is calcified, change the sand.
What causes a 6-way valve/cover leak in Intex ECO15220-2?
If the 6-way valve/cover on your Intex Water Pump is leaking, remove the 6-way valve cover and ensure the o-ring is in place. Clean the sand tank o-ring with garden hose water if it is dirty. Ensure the flange clamp is tight. If the valve is damaged, contact the Intex service center.
How to fix an Intex ECO15220-2 when inlet threaded air connector/air jet valve is leaking?
If the inlet threaded air connector/air jet valve on your Intex Water Pump is leaking, tighten or reinstall the plunger valve. Ensure the air jet valve is tight and facing up. If the internal seal is blocked, turn the pump ON and run for a few seconds, then turn OFF, repeat 3 times. If the internal seal is dirty, remove the air jet valve, flush dirt out with water, and replace the valve back. If the air jet valve is broken, replace it with a new one.
What to do if the pressure gauge doesn’t work on my Intex ECO15220-2?
If the pressure gauge on your Intex Water Pump doesn’t work, clear any obstructions in the intake by unscrewing it from the 6-way valve. If this doesn't solve the problem, contact the Intex service center because the pressure gauge may be damaged.
