    Pump not priming/holding prime

    We tried to tape it off with waterproof tape to see if there was a leak in one of the lines. It seemed to help the gurgling but not the pressure.

    Pump not priming/holding prime

    Hello! My fiancé and I just recently bought a house with a large (26000 gallon) inground pool & we have never had any pools before. When we first moved in (in December ‘18) everything was running great but since March we’ve been having a lot of trouble with our filter/pump. When we turn the...
