    Having trouble with pump and vacuum

    I bought the house with it installed. I can't tell what, if anything, is different when I go from side to side. Only that it goes off when the valve is in the middle. Also, I'm not sure if all the pop ups are working. I know they don't all go on at the same time, but it's too cold for me to get...

    Having trouble with pump and vacuum

    So with regard to the valve for the infloor system. It was all the way to the left, and the system worked. When I put it in the middle, it went off and went to 0. then went back on and back to 30 when all the way to the right. Would that mean its pushing water to a different part of the system?

    Having trouble with pump and vacuum

    I still need to test out the handle on the in-floor system. The gauges all go to 0 when the system is off. So if the valve is set for full power to the in-floor system, and it's still not getting the pool clean enough, what else could it be? The pop ups in the pool all seem to work, the pressure...

    That valve is all the way to the left.. would moving it improve the system's ability to clean the debris? pressure is around 30 consistently.

    Having trouble with pump and vacuum

    Not sure what the valve by the in floor piping does. I think I was told it has something to do with the spa. The pool has eyeballs around it plus the pop ups around the surface for the vacuum.

    Having trouble with pump and vacuum

    Here are some more pipes. Not quite sure what they do to be honest. I just cleaned the cartridges in the filter, and it still reads 28ish PSI at 3000 RPM. It's always read around there when I had a single speed pump, and then again with my variable speed at full power. The center valve does...

    Yes 28-30 at 3000 RPM. I have a Spa, there is an in floor system, the pipes are out closer to the pool. one hole in the skimmer appears to be plugged.

    Having trouble with pump and vacuum

    So should I turn that one way over to the left to get more flow to the skimmer? and do I only adjust that while the pump is off or on? Also, would that improve the ability of the pump to suck up the dirt particles its not getting? Thanks for your help :)

    - - - Updated - - - PSI is around 28-30. I last cleaned the filter cartridges in early October. - - - Updated - - - When I put my hand over where i'd put the vacuum pump in the skimmer, I don't feel any suction. The pump is flowing and working, but just leaving debris and dirt all over...

    Having trouble with pump and vacuum

    New to this forum.. I'm having some issues with my pump and vacuum. I'm still learning how everything works. I have a Pentair Clean and Clear Plus cartridge filter, with an Intelliflo 2 VST variable speed pump. I've got an 8k inground pool with a built in vacuum system. I've been using 3000RPM...
