pump problem

Postby gilesl.2011 » Tue 15 Jun, 2021 18:07

Just had a leak around my skimmer fixed. Had another one under the cool deck fixed as well. Pump worked fine before, now it acts like it can't circulate the water, like there's a blockage. Before, I'd open the lid on the pump or the filter container, and the system would loose its vacuum. Now, it starts to leak at the pump lid and filter container lid. Afraid of the pressure build up. What do you think? Thanks

Do you have a Multi Port Valve (MPV) see if it will pump to waste, then try recirculate/bypass
