Frequently Asked Questions - Flowclear 58515 BESTWAY

What type of sand should be used for the Flowclear 58515 filter?
Use #20 silica sand (0.45 to 0.85 mm). Capacity is approximately 8.5 kg. Sand is not included. You can also use Flowclear™ polyspheres (28 g to replace 1 kg of sand).
How to install the Flowclear 58515 pump?
Place the filter on a solid, level ground, at least 2 m from the pool edge. The power outlet must be at least 3.5 m from the pool. Fill the tank with sand, then connect the hoses (38 mm). Before first use, perform a backwash and rinse.
What is the purpose of backwashing?
Backwashing cleans the sand bed by reversing the water flow. It is recommended when the pressure exceeds 0.25 bar (3.5 PSI) or if the flow rate is low. Set the valve to the Backwash position for 3 to 5 minutes, then to Rinse for 1 minute.
What to do if water is not circulating?
Ensure that the plugs are removed, air has been purged (valve on backwash), the valve is not set to Closed, and the strainer is not clogged. Clean the strainer if necessary.
How to winterize the Flowclear 58515 pump?
Unplug the unit. Perform a backwash. Drain the pool. Disconnect the hoses. Completely empty the sand from the tank. Dry all components and store them in a dry, frost-free place.
Why does the pressure gauge indicate high pressure?
High pressure (> 0.25 bar) means the filter is dirty or the sand bed is calcified. Perform a backwash. If the problem persists, inspect the sand and replace if necessary. The pressure gauge is a maintenance indicator, not a precision instrument.
Can I use an extension cord?
No, extension cords are prohibited for safety reasons. Plug the pump directly into a grounded outlet protected by an RCD ≤ 30 mA.
How to clean the pump strainer?
Unplug the unit and set the valve to Closed. Replace the grids with plugs. Unscrew the strainer cover, remove the strainer and remove debris. Replace the strainer, ensure the gasket is in place, then screw the cover back on. Reinstall the grids.
What is the lifespan of the sand?
Sand should be changed every 1 to 2 years depending on use. If water becomes cloudy or pressure remains high after backwashing, it's time to replace the sand.
Is it possible to run the pump continuously?
Yes, the pump is designed for continuous operation. A minimum filtration time of 8 hours per day is recommended to maintain clear water. Ensure the valve is set to Filtration and no one is in the pool during operation.

Where is the inlet suction hose located on the Flowclear 58515 pump?
Frequently Asked Questions - 3 d
Response Notice-Facile

The inlet suction hose (intake) connects to port A of the filter of the Flowclear 58515 pump.

Technical specifications:

  • Standardized connection diameter: 38 mm (1.5 inches)
  • The hose draws water from the pool to the pump for filtration
  • This hose is not included with the pump - you need to obtain it separately

Installation:

Connect the hose directly to port A of the sand filter (filter diameter: 270 mm). The 38 mm connection ensures a tight seal. The pool must be placed at at least 2 meters from the filter.

Difference between inlet/outlet:

  • Port A (inlet/suction): draws water from the pool
  • Port D (outlet): returns filtered water to the pool

What are the causes of low residue absorption with the Flowclear 58515 pump?
Frequently Asked Questions - 15 d
Response Notice-Facile

If your Flowclear 58515 pump absorbs few residues, several factors may be responsible:

Main causes and solutions

  • Filter pressure too high - When the pressure exceeds 0.25 bar (3.5 PSI), the filter is clogged and loses its effectiveness. Check the pressure gauge on your pump. Solution: immediately perform a backwash (select the "Backwash" position for 3-5 minutes, then "Rinse" for 1 minute, before returning to "Filtration").
  • Worn or calcified filter sand - Silica sand No. 20 (0.45 to 0.85 mm) should be replaced every 1-2 years. Beyond that, it loses its absorption capacity. Check the condition of the sand (about 8.5 kg of sand in the 270 mm diameter filter).
  • Clogged strainer - Debris can block the strainer. Clean it regularly to maintain good suction flow.
  • Low inlet flow - If the flow is insufficient, few residues will be absorbed. Check that the inlet hose is not pinched or blocked.

What to do immediately: Start by checking the pressure on the gauge and perform a backwash if necessary. This is the most common cause of reduced absorption.

In filtering mode, the Flowclear 58515 pump barely absorbs debris - how can I improve absorption?
Frequently Asked Questions - 15 d
Response Notice-Facile

If your Flowclear 58515 pump is only absorbing very little debris in Filtration mode, several factors may explain this behavior:

First, check the condition of the sand

  • Pressure too low: With a pressure below 0.25 bar, the sand loses filtration efficiency. Check the pump's pressure gauge.
  • Clogged sand: When the pressure exceeds 0.25 bar, perform a backwash (function 3 of the valve) for 3 to 5 minutes. This cleans the sand bed and restores its absorption capacity.
  • Old or degraded sand: Sand should be replaced every 1 to 2 years. Worn sand absorbs fine particles less effectively.

Check connections and flow rates

  • Blocked 38 mm fittings: Inspect the suction (inlet) and discharge (outlet) pipes - debris can reduce flow and thus the absorption of debris.
  • Not enough circulation: The pump must run continuously in Filtration mode to absorb effectively. Ensure the motor operates without interruption.

Use Circulation mode if necessary

  • If you are using a vacuum cleaner or a pool robot, temporarily switch to Circulation mode (function 6) - the filter is bypassed and all the pump's power is dedicated to suction.

Recommended sand type: Silica sand #20 (0.45–0.85 mm) - make sure you have the right grade for optimal filtration.

How to use a vacuum cleaner with the Flowclear 58515 pump?
Frequently Asked Questions - 15 d
Response Notice-Facile

The BESTWAY Flowclear 58515 pump does not include a vacuum cleaner, but it is compatible with a pool vacuum or a cleaning robot.

Here’s how to proceed:

Steps to use the vacuum cleaner

  1. Connect the vacuum cleaner to the suction hose of the pump
  2. Set the control valve to the "Circulation" position - this is the mode dedicated to cleaning with external accessories
  3. Turn on the pump
  4. Slowly guide the vacuum cleaner along the bottom of the pool
  5. Turn off the pump and switch the valve back to "Filtration" when you are done

Important: Always turn off the pump before changing the position of the control valve to avoid damaging the system. In Circulation mode, the water bypasses the sand filter and goes directly to the protection grid - perfect for sucking up debris from the bottom without unnecessary strain on the filter.

What symbol to use for cleaning the pool with the Flowclear 58515 pump?
Frequently Asked Questions - 06/07/2026
Response Notice-Facile

The Flowclear 58515 pump has a control valve with 6 positions. To clean the pool, you have two main modes:

  • Filter - Normal filtration mode to be used 99% of the time. Water is pumped through the sand filter to be cleaned before returning to the pool. This is the symbol to keep in place daily for continuous and effective cleaning.
  • Circulate - Circulation mode that bypasses the sand filter. This mode should only be used if the filter is broken or under maintenance. Water circulates without complete filtration and debris is collected in the debris screens.

To change position, press the handle of the control valve and turn it to the desired symbol. Important: always stop and unplug the pump before changing the valve position to avoid any damage.

The other available positions are Closed (full stop), Backwash (filter backwash), Rinse (initial rinse), and Drain (complete drain). Never use the Closed mode with the pump running, as this would severely damage the filter. Ensure that the cap on port D is tightly screwed after each use to prevent leaks.

  1. Top up pool water if required.

IMPORTANT: This procedure removes water from the pool, which you'll need to replace.

Switch off the sand filter immediately if water levels near the pool's Inlet and Outlet valves.

  1. Now the sand filter is ready for use. Set the Control Valve to the Filter function.

NOTE: To prevent the risk of electrical shock dry any excess water from yourself and the sand filter.

  1. Switch on the sand filter to run it.

NOTE: The sand filter has now started its filtering cycle. Check that water is returning to the pool and take note of the filter pressure on Pressure Gauge. Generally, the recommended sand filter pressure is less than 0.25 Bar (3.5 PSI) when it is running.

SAND FILTER MAINTENANCE

CAUTION: You must ensure the sand filter is switched off and unplugged before any maintenance begins or severe risk of injury or death exists. As dirt builds up in the sand filter, the pressure reading on Pressure Gauge will increase. When the Pressure Gauge is 0.25 Bar (3.5 PSI) or higher, or water flow to the pool is too low, it is time to clean the sand. To clean the sand bed, follow all instructions outlined previously in: Backwash and Rinsing.

! 0.8 0.6 1 10 15 12 5 20 23 1.6 0 0.2 psi bar

NOTE: Pressure gauge is for maintenance purpose only, and the pressure gauge value is just for reference, it should not be used as a precision instrument.

NOTE: We recommend you clean the sand bed once a month or less regularly depending on how often the pool is used. Do not clean the sand too frequently.

CLEANING THE STRAINER

  1. Switch off the sand filter and set the Control Valve to the Closed function.
  2. Replace the Debris Screens with Stopper Plugs to prevent water from escaping.

  3. Remove the Strainer Cover by unscrewing it.

  4. Take out the Strainer, remove any debris.
  5. Put the Strainer back into position. Ensure the hole in the strainer is aligned.
  6. Ensure the Seal Ring is in place. Secure the Strainer Cover back.
  7. Remove the Stopper Plugs and insert the Debris Screens.

NOTE: The Strainer must be emptied and cleaned periodically. A dirty or blocked strainer will reduce the performance of the sand filter.

LOWERING OR DRAINING POOL WATER

  1. Switch off the sand filter and set Control Valve to the Drain function.
  2. Detach the Hose from the pool's Port A and sand filter Port A and attach to Port D.
    NOTE: Remember to replace the Debris Screen with Stopper Plug to prevent water from escaping.
  3. Switch on the sand filter to run the filter and remove the pool water.

WARNING: DO NOT DRY RUN THE SAND FILTER.

STORAGE

In areas that have freezing winter temperatures, pool equipment must be winterized to protect against damage. Allowing water to freeze will damage the sand filter and void warranty.

  1. Backwash the sand filter.
  2. Drain the pool according to the pool owner's manual.
  3. Disconnect the two Hoses from the pool and the sand filter.
  4. Completely pour the sand out of the tank and dry all components.
  5. Store the sand filter in a dry location out of child's reach.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problems Probable Causes Solutions
Sand is flowing to the pool- Sand is too small- Move the control valve from the backwash to the filter function without stop the sand filter- The level of the sand is too high- The skimmer is broken- Recommend 0.45 mm to 0.85 mm #20 silica sand- Stop the sand filter every time set the control valve- Check if the level of the sand is between the marked “MAX” and “MIN” on the collector hub- Replace the skimmer
No water flow- Stopper plugs were not removed- Air was not released- The control valve is set to Closed- The strainer is blocked- Sand filter broken- Remove the stopper plugs and insert the debris screens- Release the air- Set to filter function- Clean the strainer- Call for service
Excessive filter pressure- Dirty filter- Calcified sand bed- Insufficient backwashing- The pressure gauge is broken- Backwash- Inspect sand and change if necessary- Backwash until water runs clear- Replace the pressure gauge
Control Valve leaks from the port D- Control Valve is set between two functions- The gasket is broken- Set to one function- Replace the gasket
Connectors leak- Washer of the connectors not in place- Washer of the connectors broken- O-ring on the hose connection is broken- Loose Hoses- Reposition the washer- Replace the washer- Replace the O-ring- Tighten them
