We recently had a pool installed and had some issues with the builder. We have gotten everything worked out but I noticed the other day when I turned the Air Blower on for the Spa that nothing came out. I could hear it running so went over to check and the blower itself popped off the pipe. I'm assuming it needs more force at the start to force any water out of the pipe and then it can blow the air. So I turned it off, put it back on, and then turned the blower back on but I had to hold it on the PVC pipe so it didn't blow off again. After about 30 seconds it was running fine and I could remove my hand. But it doesn't seem like I should have to be manually involved when turning the Blower on!
So what do I need to do so this doesn't happen again? I'm hesitant to use PVC glue because it will make it harder to remove in the future without cutting the pipe off when it needs service or to be replaced. I have attached a picture of the unit and where it connects to the PVC. The grey coupling is glued to the white PVC pipe. It's everything above the coupling that will jump off when turned on.
Thanks!
