Every time I start the pump this season, the pump loses prime and has to reprise itself blowing a ton of air through the returns. Last year it would start right up without any air coming out.
Even if I switch from spa to pool, the pump loses prime and I can hear it groaning for a bit before getting started back up.
I’ve also noticed my pool cleaner (pressure side) will just stop mid cycle. The auxiliary pump will still be making noise but not generating and pressure.
Pool is only a few years old. Any ideas? It’s also happening with my deck jet pump. Used to start right up, but now it shoots some water out and then has to rebuild itself.
