Curious if anyone has had this issue and how they resolved it.
We have a 27' above ground pool that is in need of it's weekly vacuum. I get everything set to go, switch the pump to Waste and off I go... or so I thought.
The hose that leads FROM the pool TO the pump is collapsing in on itself keeping water from reaching the pump and therefor, zero suction.
Why is the hose doing this? This seems to be the only function of the hose, to transport the water from the pool to the pump, but it can't do it's job because its collapsing in, blocking the water from reaching the pump. It's very frustrating.
Will a new hose do the trick? Do I need a super-duper heavy duty pump hose? Will this happen again with the new hose?
Thanks for any advice!
