  7. What are the correct steps to insert the flow reduction adapter into the strainer (for rectangular metal frame pool 12’x24’x48” only)?
ANSWERS:
  1. Can I use the pool with the sprayer on?

    No, due to various local, state, national and international standards, the skimmer and sprayer cannot be operated while in the pool since the filter pump is not to be operated when the pool is in use and/or occupied.
  2. What is the minimum flow rate that is functional with the sprayer?

    1,000 gal/hr is the minimum flow rate of INTEX filter pumps if the sprayer is to be used effectively.
  3. Which model filter pump or pools are compatible with the sprayer?

    The sprayer can be used with all Intex filter pump models (except models M1, 603) and with chlorine generator/filter pump (saltwater pool system/filter pump) models 8111. All the Easy Set and Frame pools work with the sprayer as long as the liner has the proper inlet/outlet hose connectors.
  4. Can I use the sprayer with other filter pump brands?

    No. We do not recommend the sprayer on filter pumps other than INTEX models. The joints may not fit correctly and the pressure may be too high, causing damage to the product and / or personal injury.
  5. What is the spray range for the Intex sprayer?

    The maximum range depends on the flow rate of the filter pump.

    - For 1,000 – 1,500 gal/hr filter pump like Model 635, the water can spray up to 9’ with proper adjustment of the bypass valve.
    - For 2,000 – 2,500 gal/hr filter pump as Model 633, the water can spray up to 23’ by adjusting the bypass valve.
  6. Which water return connector should I connect the sprayer to, since there are two water return connectors on my 12’x24’x48” rectangular metal frame pool liner?

    Either one works fine. After connecting the sprayer to a water return connector, remember to insert the flow reduction adapter into the strainer on the other water return connector. This will provide a good water flow rate to the sprayer.
  7. What are the correct steps to insert the flow reduction adapter into the strainer (for rectangular metal frame pool 12’x24’x48” only)?

    Remember to always turn off or unplug the pump before servicing. From inside the pool, unscrew the strainer grid from the threaded strainer connector, insert the flow reduction adapter into the threaded strainer connector, and then screw the strainer grid back on the threaded strainer connector.
