First, I'm not sure how to update my information that appears at the bottom of my messages, so I'll add the current info at the end.
We replaced the pump, but can't seem to get a good strong flow out of returns. We are getting spurts of air bubbles and after a bit, while vacuuming, we lose suction. I'm not tech savvy on the pump, etc, but the one thing I'm noticing on this new pump vs the older one is, the little canister/tank where the water shoots in to (don't mind my lack of proper tech terms here!), doesn't seem to fill. With the old pump, that little water tank next to it would fill up with water while pump was running and it was often hard to even tell if it had water in it, apart from seeing tiny bubbles. With this new pump, the whole time the filter is running, the water just continues to pour into the tank, then goes out...never filling. Hope this makes sense!
We opened to nice water, but now we are getting murky due to pump issues, so help is greatly appreciated!
Filter info hasn't changed, but we now have the following pump:
Hayward Super Pump, 10ft lift, self priming, 1 HP Not sure what other info you'd need. We have an above ground pool, but my husband was told we should use this type pump since the pumping station sits above the water level of the pool.
