Your swimming pool pump impeller is what creates the flow from your pool to your filter and returns out . When the impeller is clogged it reduces the flow. A clear indication of reduced flow from a clogged impeller is… your pump pot might not have full prime. This means your pump basket will not be full with water.

Another indication that you might have a clogged impeller is your pool pump gauge might be reduced. So if it normally set at 30 and it's running at 20, this could be an indication of a clogged impeller or your vacuum might not be working as efficiently or as as normal.

With the basket removed/out and with the motor turned off you can put a screwdriver or NPS Pool & Spa Supply http://www.npspool.com/phoenix/ sells an impeller and clogger. It's a tool specifically designed just to unclog and clean the impeller.

Using the device, insert into the basket and pump area and scrape for vegetation, debris, and other things that might be blocking your impeller. Lots of debris can be in the impeller especially during the spring with blowing winds and vegetation.

After you have checked your impeller and removed your debris place your basket back in. You fill up with water to prime, and you put your lid back on making sure the O-ring has not fallen off or is missing.

Next, turn the motor on to ensure priming.

So how often should you check your impeller? Check it on a weekly basis when you check your pump basket for debris. Take a few extra moments to check and clean the impeller. It will help with the flow and to keep your pool crystal clear, ready-to-swim!
