My blow up toy sucks.

Sign in to disble this ad
Who knows anything about those blow up pools, help a brother out...

So, parents were throwing away that blow up pool thingie... so i said ...it... I'll take it and set it up at my place since it'd be nice to have on hot day...

Fixed the holes they had in it, looks fine... cleaned it, blah blah blah...

ground looked leveled so i just set it up there... apparently it was not... It's not off by much but the pump is on higher side of the of the pool so the hose is right at the water level... It pumps the water but it seems at lower rate... If i push the hole under the water it slightly better... but other then that, the hose that pumps water back into the pool seems to be full, the hose that pumps the water to the pump seems to be half full, i can see water flowing in to it, and at the pump the hose is full... Is this ok? Should i drain it and put the pump on the lower side? or this is the way they work, just hose half full...


Thanks

Most blow-up toys suck. If you don't like the sucking, you can switch your hose to the other input and it will work too, without sucking.

I... I was doing some cliché wordplay. However, your water input should be around the water level. Pumps don't support air that much, it's not the right resistance for their power and can damage them.

So, the pipe should be full of water. The output is usually submerged.

You can compensate for an uneven inflatible kiddie pool by filling it with pork and beans and naked sexy Asian chicks.
