Why is my Intex Water Pump filter not pumping water or the flow is very slow?

  Heidi HarrisAug 21, 2025
  If your Intex Water Pump isn't pumping water or the flow is slow, it could be due to several reasons. Check for clogs in the inlet or discharge and clear any obstructions. Ensure there are no air leaks on the intake line by tightening hose clamps and inspecting for damage, and verify the pool water level is adequate. A buildup on the cartridge may also be the cause, so replace it if necessary. If the pool is excessively dirty, clean the cartridge more often. Also, make sure that the nozzle is installed at the upper position of the pool inlet, and the strainer at the lower position of the pool outlet and that the pool inlet air adaptor is connected to the pool inlet upper fitting.

  If the filter motor on your Intex Water Pump won't start, first ensure the filter cord is plugged into a grounded outlet that's protected by a Class A Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter. Also, check if the GFCI circuit breaker has tripped and reset it. If it trips repeatedly, there may be an electrical system defect requiring an electrician. Lastly, the motor may have overheated; allow it to cool down.

  If your Intex Water Pump filter isn’t cleaning the pool effectively, start by adjusting the chlorine and pH levels. Clean or replace the filter cartridge if it's dirty, and inspect the cartridge for holes, replacing it if damaged. For an excessively dirty pool, operate the filter for longer periods. Also, clean the strainer screen at the inlet if it's restricting the water flow.
