    New Hayward Filter...pressure at 30!!!

    thanks for advice...air bubbles from one return and not the other doesn't seem to have any negative side effects (water level constant, no dirt/etc showing up...all good) My gauge reading 30: ordered a glycerin-filled unit...came in yesterday...immediately installed...pressure is now reading...

    New Hayward Filter...pressure at 30!!!

    thanks for advice so far...feel I'm not alone! At the pump/filter (by the house, about 20ft away from actual pool), there's one water return pipe that I'm assuming splits off once it gets near the pool...if there is air coming out just one return port, I'm thinking there's no air getting into...

    New Hayward Filter...pressure at 30!!!

    - floc...definitely vac to waste... - at rest, filter gauge reads 20, then jumps to 30 when running water...was reading zero before (last week), then stayed at 10 during operation. - when I have everything off, and I undo reservoir lid for pump, the water level is right to the top of...

    New Hayward Filter...pressure at 30!!!

    okay...recently did some cleaning (Floc), and after vacuuming, noticed water level was a bit below what it should be for the skimmer to get enough water...turned off skimmer valve near pump but I'm assuming some air got into system...pump pressure was reading near 30, whereas its usually at a...

    polaris280 - just out of box, 1.5 days old!

    okay...researched...thrust jet at 11 o'clock, wheel rpm at 30rpm, all wheels turning same rate, floater head 1.5 " from body...and now: 1. works great for bottom of deep end, but doesn't want to climb wall slopes 2. no problems climbing ramp from deep to shallow, but then turns around back to...
