Hi all,
I have had solar heaters installed for about 5 years and this year I am experiencing constant bubbles at my 1st return (I have 3 ). So far I have back washed & deep cleaned my sand filter and switched the VRV from the top of my run to the bottom. When I close 2 of the jets the bubbles stop. My pad is about 5 ft away from my pool & the plumbing to the heaters (4 of them) is on the second story right next ton the pad. This is the first year I have had this problem. Pump basket is full of water with no significant air & the bubbles stop with the heaters off. My pressure with clean filter is 16 & with heaters on is 19. My guess is either the check valve or the VRV. How do I find out which?
