does the bypass automaticly kick in if pressure gets too high?

No it does not.. its a diverter. You have to manually direct where the water should go.

No. This is a manual switch valve, like a regular ball valve, after running mine for a year the by pass valve is extremely hard to to turn on and off, and they are not made to last either .

No, its a manual handle. the pressure gauge is on the other t fitting. it did increase pressure from 15 to 20. pool co said that's fine.
206452
Not that I am aware of, as I stated, we cannot even move the handle to bypass at all..........

The bypass has to be turned on / off manually. I don't think pressure is ever an issue.

NO YOU HAVE TO SWITCH THE BYPASS WITH THE LEVER. It is best to leave the solar system on when the sun is out and turn the bypass on for the remainder of the filter time. I hope this helps.

The valve I had was extremely hard to turn. I say had because it went into the dumpster along with the two "heaters" I wasted my money on.

The pressure switch may be sent to low. Adjust it with the screw in the front of the pump head.

I do not think so. I know when I turn it back on the pump needs to be restarted.

Yes, it stays that way until it builds up pressure. There will be a beep when it's down and you'll flip the dial to release the pressure.

No it does not, it is just your average pump. It is small though. I normally press/squeeze the tires to estimate if the air is enough.

Not normal. It should only click on when pressure decreases to on pressure set point. It must be losing pressure somewhere. Bad gauge maybe ?

Not manually, but you can control the intensity of the pressure you put on the steps. It is a good starter.

The pump is automatic, onceIt fills up, it automatically pumps it out. Or u can do it manually..

If its hard to pump from the beginning, its not working properly. As pressure goes up it gets a little harder to pump.

Yes, the pump will kick on when the pressure goes below about 40 psi, it is also nice and quiet.

The pressure is steady. There is a release on the pump handle so one can manually simulate the behavior you mention if needed.

It goes pretty high but it feels unstable when it's at it's highest. It also tries to pump lower on its own when you have it up.

No it is not automatic .I find these pumps better than any other makes and cheaper.I use these for my live bait tanks.

When you have it on the filter setting yes .If the filter itself is properly set up, it is not greatly diminished when filtering. When the filter is not being used,it should be normal pressure.

no.. I couldn't use my bike pump at all. I also went to the gas station and couldn't use it there either. i had to end up buying an automatic pump that had a long skinny valve to fit in it. Wasted my money, since it doesn't even work properly.. My son uses it to lay on and jump on it.:(

Yes, every day, every other day, every couple days. Also, has a manual bypass.

It's variable (meaning you can adjust it to when you want it to kick in).... I usually have it kick in at about 90 psi
