FAQ – Your questions about the FreeFlo above-ground pool filter pump

1. What is the pump's warranty?
The FreeFlo pump is guaranteed for 2 years, with the exception of wear parts (mechanical seal guaranteed for 90 days).

2. Can the pump be installed by myself?
Yes, installation is simple thanks to the provided fittings and detailed manual. However, a professional can assist you to ensure optimal installation.

3. How to maintain the pump?

• Clean the pre-filter basket regularly to prevent clogging.
• Ensure that the fittings are tight to prevent leaks.
• Inspect the motor in case of unusual noise or overheating.

4. Is the pump suitable for small in-ground pools?
Yes, the FreeFlo 0.75 HP is also suitable for small in-ground pools up to 50 m³, provided the pump is installed less than 8 meters from the pool.

• Install the pump as close to the pool as possible.

• Use a direct and short suction hose with a constant slope to avoid long priming times.

• The pump must be fixed on a flat and solid base, high enough to avoid submerging the motor.

• Install the filter and pump in a protected area, ensuring adequate ventilation and access for maintenance.

• Do not install the control devices directly above the pump.

• Ensure adequate ground drainage to avoid exposing the pump to water.

• Prepare all pipes to the correct dimensions and reduce the number of elbows as much as possible.

• Provide independent support for the pipe near the pump's suction and discharge to reduce strain on the pump.

• Avoid overtightening pipe joints.

• Only use sealing materials designed for plastic materials for the pipes.

• Avoid petroleum-based products. It is essential that the suction hose has no air leaks. Its diameter must always be at least equal to that of the pump's suction port.

• To prevent water from flowing in the wrong direction and the impeller from loosening, installing a non-return valve after the pump is strongly recommended. 

For plumbing: 

1. For improved pool plumbing, it is recommended to use a larger pipe size.

2. The diameter of the piping on the pump's suction side must be identical to or larger than that of the return line.

3. The piping on the pump's suction side must be as short as possible.

4. For most installations, Pentair recommends installing a valve on both the suction and return lines to allow the pump to be isolated during routine maintenance. However, we also recommend that any valve, elbow, or tee installed on the suction line not be placed at a distance from the front of the pump less than five (5) times the diameter of the suction line. Independently support the pipe near the pump's suction and discharge to reduce stress on the pump. Use plastic pipe sealants.

The suction line should be the same size as the pump's suction inlet.

Example: a ø 50 mm pipe requires a 250 mm straight line before the pump's suction inlet. This will allow the pump to prime faster and operate longer.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT install 90° elbows directly at the pump's inlet or outlet.
