Can I use this to pump water out of my 13K-gallon pool?

I guess it would work. But, that does not seem to be its purpose in life. It does not have an auto shut off. For a pool, I think I would go to a pool supply house to see what they have and buy something that fits your specific need.

If speed is not of the essence, yes it would pump the water out in almost 11 hours. Remember, there is no automatic shut off on this pump. You would want to be around to stop it when the water is no longer being moved by the pump. Note: if your pool is an above ground pool installed as semi- Inground, it will collapse due to pressure of surrounding dirt.

Yes, although to empty the pool, if that's the goal, would take quite a long time. I use mine to pump water off the winter cover in the spring. The pool is 20'x40' and it takes it six or eight hours to lower the water level six inches or so.....if I remember correctly. One does have to monitor it as it gets close to the end. It doesn't seem to bother the pump to run dry for twenty minutes or so...done it several times without burning out. All-in-all, it is a solid, heavy, very capable pump. I'd recommend it highly.

Not sure. I'm not using the pump for direct outflow out of the house. Sorry I can't be of assistance

I would say yes, but be aware of the operating amps of the pump. Other than that it should work.

I do not believe this is for your application. This is an above ground pump.

You could, but I wouldn't. I got mine for the pump for an above ground swimming pool. You appear to be planning to use this for a permanent (in house) appliance. I would get an electrician to install a new outlet.

It would work. But I think u should go to 500 gph or higher. These pumps were made to pump short distances

Doubtful not unless you want to change the software configuration. Try inyopools website which has lots of info, make sure you know the gallonage of your pool.

not necessarily. you should be able to buy winterizing chemicals or even a kit at your local pool supply retailer. just unhook the pump, and plug the inlet and outlet.

I don't think so even though you mentioned "thin paint". the pump is thin plastic & we really need to use a lot of pressure to transfer plain water. We use pump to siphon water from a 25 gallon fish tank when changing water in tank.

I think but am no expert but it would be to small for that big of a pool. The pump would have to run long to cycle that much water. My pool is smaller. It does run my caretaker 99 cleaning system very well though. My pool is only an 8000 gallon play pool. Running a 1.5hp Wisperflow pump.

I wish I could answer your question, but I am using my unit on a 1 3/4 hp pump for a 10,000 gallon in ground pool. The only issue I have is that the hose gets heavy wit the water and the cleaner does not make it all the way around my pool.

Yes you can use this unit. This offline chlorinator includes everything you need. Tubing, fittings, seals and the chlorinator.

You probably could but it's pretty big at 8 gallons per minute flow - I am guessing you would want a smaller model.

Yes, just use the shut off valves from pool to filter pump. Disconnect hoses and replace with new ones. Or you can lower water level below the lowest outlet and replace that way.

I am using this pump to feed a whole house right now, from a 55 gal drum, main water line feeding house froze over a month ago. GPM are low but it should work, if an expansion tank is used it may help.

Yes it will work fine for pumping out a saltwater pool, simply rinse the unit off when your finished. The salt will only damage the unit if it is allowed to sit on the unit. It is a very durable unit I used it to drain a 1 acre pond for yearly maintenance and it was run 8hrs a day for 10 days straight. Keep and eye on the oil and change it as recommended!

I wouldn't think so. I'm using this pump to circulate a 25,000 gallon pool. I don't know anything about aquariums but I would think this would be way too much pump.
