    Please help with sand filter/pump air problem, I'm a newbie!

    Would that explain why my needle is so jumpy on the gauge? What should my normal pressure be? Thanks!

    no worries I agree it's messy looking right now but he's not done with it so it will be better before it's all over, pool was only put in a few weeks ago. It's not leaking around the glue joints, already tried that but thanks :)

    Please help with sand filter/pump air problem, I'm a newbie!

    My husband said he can't remove the elbow because it's all glued. It's a 90 degree elbow which he says he worries is the proble and why we couldn't have a different elbow there but he says that is what the installer said needed to be there. The installer hasn't been back out and I intend for him...

    Please help with sand filter/pump air problem, I'm a newbie!

    We tried the suggestions but still no change. My mother and father in law were in this weekend from out of town. They have an inground pool and they also are puzzled by what's going on with ours.

    Just checked with my husband and he has placed an air relief valve on the filter earlier today and he said it is not releasing air only water. Is that good?

    Ok I will try that. Thanks for the suggestions. I can't see any bubbles in the basket, it looks good. We don't have air relief valve on our pump. We have a Hayward 1.5 hp super pump and a Hayward 24" sandfilter. I'll try those things you suggested and get back to you tomorrow. Thank you so much!

    Hi, I just had an inground fiberglass viking pool installed. The installer hooked the plumbing up to my Hayward 24" sand filter and to the 1.1/2 hp hayward super pump. The problem is that there is a gurgling noise near the sand filter up where the elbow pipe meets the filter. It's pretty loud...
