pump looses prime during cleaning
pump looses prime during cleaning
My filter and pump works fine until a hook a vaccum hose to the skimmer. As soon as I hook my cleaning hose to skimmer it sucks down real tight and the pump backet decreases in water. It looses its prime. I put a new lid and o- ring on and as soon as you hook on the cleaning hose the water in the basket drops. when I take off the cleanning hose and switch to filter it runs great.

Firts thing you need to do is make sure you have enough water to cover the vac plate when it is hooked to the skimmer. You are sucking air and I have had customers with the same problem.
