I have now noticed that when my pump shuts off, it loses prime.
Note that when running, there are NO bubbles in the return lines into the pool.
The clear lid is full of water without any bubbles when the pump in running,
BUT when the pump shuts off, at first everything appears normal but then
a few bubbles appear under the clear lid and then more until the water drains out
to a level just below the top of the little basket inside.
When the pump restarts, it primes itself but obviously not a good situation which
I'm afraid if not fixes will shorten the life of my pump.
What can be causing the loss of prime when the pump shuts off ??
