Pump Not Sucking
Pump Not Sucking
I need help. My pump is running, but when it is in Filter mode, there is no suction in the intake, yet there is water moving OUT of the outflow into the pool. The water is moving around the pool, but there is no suction. I have replaced all the hoses and everything is tight. Any suggestions before I have to spend $125 an hour on a pool guy out here? Thanks for any help.

Hi,
You must have a main drain in the pool? The water is being pulled from somewhere and that is the likely spot. If you have a main drain, how do you adjust the flow for the drain and skimmer?
Pump boggs down while cleaning
im having a filter problem... new sand, new pump, new laterals, hoses, and the spider top is replaced... but my suction cleaner will work for just a few minutes, 3-5 and then slowly bog down... then stop suction. I can use recirc AND backwash to filter with my cleaner, but i need to find out why it doesnt work correctly.. filter will work without cleaner attached also... Ive even bought a new suction cleaner... live in country.. no pool help...even does this while manually vacuuming
