Hi,
I have an Intex 18 x 48 Easy Set pool and after many months of dealing with how bad the included 1500gph pump is, I bought a 2500gph Intex pump for this summer (hope it works a bit better!), but after it's all installed I'm realizing that my skimmer basket no longer fits and not sure if I'm missing something or if I need to upgrade the skimmer or possibly the fitting for the skimmer? If I don't use a skimmer basket, then obviously I can't hook up the (not so great) vacuum!
Also, yesterday when I turned on the pump for the first time I was amazed at the force of the water flowing out of it. Thought FINALLY!!! Then today it's hardly moving the water! I took the filter out and ran it under water to clean it a bit and again it pumped forcefully and then after a couple hours back to hardly at all! Any ideas??
Thanks for any help!
