I have a 18x36 inground with a Hayward DE filter. Recently I moved my filter approx 50 feet from my pool... I also decided I wanted to get a new VS pump to cut energy costs.... My issue is that it never seems to prime all the way... I do get pressure from the return lines to the pool with maybe a little air in the returns.... I am curious if my 1 1/2 suction and returns could cause the inability of the pump to prime.... I used the same size lines as what the pool is plumbed with..I am not necessarily concerned about the pump not being full, I do not have any water appliances so it is just filtering.... I guess my main question is will the filter clean the water even though it is not totally primed?
Any advice would be appreciated...
TIA
