Brief general overview:
Pool built in 2016, I have a Jandy single speed pump that could possibly be going out, or air leak? I have two skimmers on opposite ends of the pool, and the MD, (2). I clean my cartridge filter twice yearly, Spring, Fall.
Towards the end of the season, beginning Fall I started seeing a bigger then usual air bubble in the pump basket, I kinda ignored it cleaned the skimmer baskets thinking air might have been sucked in etc..
I noticed the bubble had gotten bigger, thinking air leak somewhere, I read all threads regarding this point, purchased new basket O-ring, cleaned the cartridge filters, added some grease to the filter basket to try and hold a seal better and remedied the bubble.
I came back from a few day vacation and everything was normal, besides leaves galore and I adjusted the valves to remove suction off the skimmers to remove the baskets and clean. After adjusting back, I can't remedy the bubbles.
I completely moved the suction to both skimmers, with no change. As well as doing the same with the MD.
I checked the drain plugs at the bottom of the pump and all seem well, drained and cleaned filter basket again, no found air leaks around any joints.
Only thing I can think of is impeller debris, pump failing, air leak, looking for any suggestions.
