Ok so the bubbles are definitely there with the swg turned off / unplugged. If I have to I could possibly rig a straight pipe up to the unions just to totally eliminate the swg possibility. There are definitely no bubbles at all in the pump basket. I'm used to seeing a few dance around at the...

Nothing fancy other than the swg.

Thank you for the quick responses! My pump was off from noon until 5pm. I just started it up with the swg cell unplugged from the control box. No change in the amount of bubbles. Anything else that this could possibly be attributed to? Thanks again for you help!
