WEBSITE: clean-pool-and-spa.com/ for more swimming pool care maintenance tips and instructions about how to prime a swimming pool pump.

How to prime your swimming pool pump is one of the easiest things you can do when it comes to pool maintenance.

Get a bucket filled 1/2 with water. To turn the system off. Remove the pump lid and fill the pump pot with the water. Check the o-ring on the lid. If it's cracked or broken you need to replace it.

Quickly put the lid back on and secure it down. Turn the pump on and open the bleeder valve on the filter.

Close the bleeder valve once water starts to spray out. Check around the pump lid to be sure it fits securely and there are no leaks.

You're finished.
