Can this pump be used with a summer escape above ground pool?

Yes but the hoses are a different size, so you would have to buy an adapter to hook the houses up to pump

I can't specifically answer your question because I don't know what a "summer escape" pool is; however, it does fit over the top rim of my skimmer basket, which is about 8-1/2" in diameter. Hope this helps.

yes you can , but this pump is too big for that kind of job . i think you are better off with an electric submerge one.

Yes, as long as your pump is at least 1000 GPH. It's designed to be used with the pump and filter combination used by most above ground pools. It has a very small net bag to prevent larger debris from entering the pump or filter.

Yes. My pool is below ground level and it works fine, even around steps. Above ground pools are an issue because of the ladders.

Thank you for your question. A bicycle pump could work provided there's a company that makes an adaptor that connects the pump to the pool (there must be an airtight connection) I always recommend using an electric or battery operated air pump. It's very quick and easy to use. Good Luck!

I use it in my above ground pool, however you do need a strong post or something to anchor it (preferably a few inches above the rim of the pool).

The pump is a submersible pump. It's intake is so large that I don't think you could use it out of water if you tried.

I would not recommend this for anything except an above ground. An inground pool requires much more plumbing and the pressure has to travel a farther distance I do not think it would suffice.

I wouldn't think so. The filter will not be your problem, it's figuring out a way to keep pumps from burning up. I finally bought an above ground pump from grainger (1/2 horse, it comes with a check valve), and a hair and lint pot for an above ground pool. Next I bought a lilly pad skimmer for older swim pools. Took out the float ( it was catching on lip and running pump dry)and found a skimmer basket that fit perfectly. Connected the pump to the hair and lint pot with mission clamps... just in case empeller gets debris in it.

I don't see why it wouldn't. Ours works great but our pool is above ground. Recommended.

As long as the pool have a metal frame with the cap that has an overhang on the outside it should work

Although this pump only has one speed, I would highly recommend it. We have a 24 ft. above ground pool and it works great!

The Aquabot Jr is designed for in ground use, but yes it will work in above-ground pools. Only place the needed cable in the pool as excess will tangle.

Absolutely. Above or inground, as long as it is a chlorine pool this kit will work. Go to Trouble Free Pools for all the information you could possibly want about above ground pools. I have learned so much on the site.

I would say probably not without a little enginuity. It is designed for an above ground pool. And I would try to find new screws for this too the ones that come with it suck. And I would use stainless steel screw s if you can find em

It would likely depend on how high you needed the water to be "pushed" for the waterfall, but, it's a great pump. Our pool water return sits about 4 feet above the pump and no issues with that height.
