I have two valves on the return side for the pool. One is for bubblers and other is the jets around the pool. When I open the one for the jets around the pool all the way, my pump makes noise like air is in the lines they are visible in the pool. Bubbler only does not do it. Hot tub does not do it.

I have 2 skimmers. One is in series with main drain and has float valve. The other in parallel with the 1st one and no float valve. I would assume that both need float valve because if water drops below level both would induce air. And the parallel one without the float valve is gettin more...

I have a suction side vacuum. If I set it too high with valve and kids take out, pump cavitates. I have even hit the valve with the mower and didn’t notice. The valve is between pool main drain + skimmers and vacuum. It there a valve that would protect against this? I know I could set it...

Getting a lot of micro bubbles in hotub. Not in pool. We have an air blower, heater and swg. Is there a common problem or a method to figure out what’s causing them?

The directions say lower chlorine to 1 - 3. The pool is about 15, I shocked before slowing it all down for winter. Salt gen is turned off. Might be awhile before it drops to a level that low. Is it that important to wait until it’s that low…? Thanks

I have the standard eyeballs, single speed pump, plaster finished, plumbed with pool, air blower. want to upgrade the jets because we use so much. Maybe to more adjustable ones or massage. Any input is appreciated. thanks

I added borax and MA. Next morning testing shows it’s killed my chlorine and CYA. My question is did it kill the reading or actually the levels? Thanks.

240 v, 50 hertz , 3.8 amp it’s wired on a single pole switch. 3 wires coming in. Red, black, green, black is going through switch pols and 240v, red continues. so where did black pickup both legs and is the red a neutral? If so could I replace switch with light switch that requires a neutral...
