I’m having the same problem with mine. I replaced the jets with waterway jets after the pool was refinished a couple years ago but the blower was dead and I just was lazy and never replaced it bc we never used it. fast forward to now I put a new blower on because my kid wants bubbles and it...

Also I couldn’t locate my original post, even searched for it and nothing. so I made another...now they both seem to be here. Apologies

Yes it has a check valve and I believe it’s working correctly but I’ll make sure. new-ish problem. Old blower died over a year ago and I’ve been lazy about replacing. Finally did and now here we are

Yes

Just as title says. If equipment is in pool mode & you turn on air blower bubbles come out. switch it to spa mode, turn on blower and nothing. mold blower died a year or so ago, this one is a brand new 2hp. Any ideas?

If I turn the blower on in pool mode bubbles come out the spa just as they should. if it’s in spa mode (when you would want bubbles) they don’t come out. it was suggested I replace the 3 spinning massage jets with regular ones as it could be a restriction issue and the air can’t make it...

That was done after the issue was happening. Jets were removed and checked for blockages. Now, having said that, something might be broke from when they chipped out the old plaster during demo

It’s not a new install though. It’s been there since the pool was installed in 2005. Didn’t become an issue until after replaster.

So just went to make sure check valve was correct and then I removed the blower to look in the pipe. There is a chunk of mulch in there, no idea how, but when I turned the spa on, it was fine, no issue. Wth? Could it be that the blower is old and not making enough pressure to force air...

Sorry, I should’ve said, when the problem first happened it was suggested to look for a blockage. I took the jets off and put a long screw driver in them, while the spa was drained. Never found anything. Originally the spa had 3 massage deluxe jets and 3 regular. I replaced with all...

Before I put the jets on I stuck a long metal rod into the jets and didn’t find anything....but doesn’t mean there isn’t still a restriction. Here are 2 links to videos I recorded this morning. 1 of the jets/fittings (sorry for the glare) and one of the water coming out the blower. July 10...

Re: Water coming out blower motor Thanks for the merge Yes it was a previous problem....but when I added the check valve, it no longer was. Or so I thought I can add pics, just have to get a hosting account, as I’m apparently out allowed upload space on the forum

Re: Water coming out blower motor Anyone?

Re: Water coming out Spa blower??? Anyone?

Water coming out blower motor Wasn’t sure where to put this, so Cross posted in Pumps, Filters & Plumbing too Ever since we had our pool replastered in March, we've had an issue with the spa. When in spa mode, water comes out of the blower. Realized there wasn't a check valve installed on it...

Water coming out Spa blower??? Not sure if this should go here or in the spa forum But Ever since we had our pool replastered in March, we’ve had an issue with the spa. When in spa mode, water comes out of the blower. Realized there wasn’t a check valve installed on it, so I installed one...

Thanks for the replies everyone! I removed all the jets, using a pair of pliers because I couldn’t get them by hand. Soon as I did that, all was well again, so clearly the jets must’ve been closed causing back pressure. Not sure the valves are all set correctly, as they still don’t seem to...

I don’t know the specific model number off the top of my head but they’re the Waterway Olastixs deluxe jets I had 3 of each but now have 6 of the spinning one with the two holes. As shown here Waterway 210-6080 Poly Gunite Deluxe Series Fixed Directional Scalloped Spa Jet Internal - - -...

Pool recently remodeled. No plumbing changed. New jets installed in spa, 6 total. Used to be 3 regular and 3 spinning or massaging jets....I replaced with all 6 the massaging kind. If you switch it to spa mode, immediately water comes out of the blower. It’s installed plenty high and far...

Pool company just texted me saying they replaced the check valve where the pipe was cicrcled. And that they hope it fixes it

I replaced the o rings in the pump side. I’m not home but can get a pic in a bit I’m guessing the old check valves are bad....at least hoping the one I have circled is. I’m just guessing it goes to the spa, as it isn’t labeled - - - Updated - - - No frickin clue why water would suddenly be...

Background: Bought house 4.5yrs ago, pool had bad plaster at the time but not leaking so just dealt with it. Also, every night, the spa water level would drop to the pool level when equipment was off. Just figured it needed a check valve but since plaster was bad I never cared. Now we’ve had...

This of course was my first apprehension That's my number one concern, what happens when exposed to all the chemicals, plus the fact that I believe it will essentially be permananent. That's a pretty awesome drain cover for sure. Located in Houston, TX. Plaster is fading, cracked and in...

Our pool has needed to be replastetrd since we bought the house 3yrs ago, but it's purely cosmetic so far & not leaking, so we keep putting it off. Good friend owns a home remodeling company & is wanting to branch out into pools. He mentioned wanting to look into getting his start on my pool...

Well the pool is clear again, lots of areas of settled DE but I should be able to easily vacuum it out

I added 5-6 "scoops" to the filter this evening and have it set to run all night, to hopefully soak up some of the extra DE. Plan on backwaahing and starting fresh tomorrow.......and of course vacuuming up any excess de alone the way.

I'll let the filter run over night and see how the pool looks in the morning, but plan on having to vacuum
