Why won't my Intex Krystal Clear C1500 Water Pump filter motor start?
- A
  April AcostaAug 20, 2025
  The Intex water pump filter motor may fail to start due to several reasons. First, ensure the filter cord is plugged into a 3-wire outlet protected by a Class A Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter, or RCD. Second, check if the GFCI/RCD circuit breaker has tripped and reset it. If it repeatedly trips, there may be an electrical defect requiring an electrician. Lastly, the motor might be too hot, triggering an overload protection shutoff; allow the motor to cool down.

What to do if my Intex Water Pump doesn't pump water or has very slow water flow?

  If your Intex water pump isn't pumping water or the water flow is very slow, several factors could be the cause. Start by clearing any obstructions in the intake hose by discharging it inside the pool wall. Then, check for air leaks on the intake line by tightening hose nuts and inspecting hoses for damage, also check pool water level. If the cartridge has scale or buildup, replace it. For excessively dirty pools, clean the cartridge more often. Also, clean inside the plunger valve. Ensure the nozzle and strainer connection are not reversed by pulling the valve handle to the full upright position. Lastly, make sure the inlet threaded air connector is connected to the pool inlet upper hole, with the nozzle at the upper position and the strainer at the lower position of the pool outlet.

  If your Intex Water Pump isn't pumping water or the flow is slow, it could be due to several reasons. Check for clogged inlet or discharge and clear any obstructions. Inspect the intake line for air leaks and tighten hose nuts, check hoses for damage, and ensure the pool water level is adequate. Replace the cartridge if there's scale or buildup. If the pool is excessively dirty, clean the cartridge more often. Also, clean inside the plunger valve. Ensure the nozzle and strainer connection are correctly installed with the valve handle in the full upright position, and verify that the inlet threaded air connector is connected to the correct hole on the liner, with the nozzle at the upper position and the strainer at the lower position.

  If your Intex Water Pump isn’t working, first ensure the water level is correct. Clean the strainer screens at the pool inlet. Check for air leaks on the intake hose and tighten the hose nuts, inspecting the hose for damage. Clear any sticks or leaves in the intake hose if the impeller is jammed. Finally, address any air lock inside the cartridge chamber by turning and pulling the valve handle to the full upright position.

  To fix an air lock in your Intex water pump, open the air release valve and wait until water starts to flow out, then close it. Also, ensure that the lower position of the pool outlet connects to the filter pump water inlet, and the upper position of the pool inlet connects to the filter pump water outlet.

Why doesn't my Intex Krystal Clear C1500 Water Pump clean the pool?

  Daniel FisherSep 1, 2025
  If your Intex Water Pump isn't effectively cleaning the pool, it could be due to improper chlorine or pH levels; adjust them accordingly. Also, the filter cartridge might be dirty, requiring cleaning or replacement. Check the cartridge for damage and replace if necessary. For excessively dirty pools, operate the filter for longer periods. Additionally, ensure the strainer screen at the inlet isn't restricting water flow by cleaning it.

How to resolve a leak from the inlet threaded air connector/air jet valve on my Intex Krystal Clear C1500?
- M
  Michael ParkerSep 5, 2025
  To resolve a leak from the inlet threaded air connector or air jet valve on your Intex water pump, begin by tightening or reinstalling the plunger valve. Ensure the air jet valve is tight and facing up. If the air jet valve internal seal is blocked, turn the pump ON and run for a few seconds, then turn OFF, repeating this process three times. If the air jet valve internal seal is dirty, remove the air jet valve, flush out any dirt with water, and replace the valve. If the air jet valve is broken, replace it with a new one.
