I recently had a warranty replacement on one of our pool lights and the filter’s pressure gauge. This was the one and only time I did not watch them doing the repair, so now with my current issues I wonder if the maybe did something (hopefully I’m just being paranoid).
A few days later I noticed two of the 4 spa jets that are connected to the main pump barely had any pressure (one less than the other). Over the last week I’ve read a number of posts on TFP. I’ve checked the skimmer basket, and the pump and both had very little debris. The pressure gauge when in pool mode was its usual 12psi. I also cleaned the filter about a month ago, but opened it up anyway and did not see anything problematic, I did rinse the filters of the little debris that was there. When I went to put the lid back on I noticed the o-right was quite stretched out, and it’s only 3 years old. I was able to get the lid back on and the o-right squeezed in.
Anyway, I can’t think of anything else to check regarding the two jet’s pressure.
OH … one more odd thing! I have a setting for the pool’s pump to run at 2700 and 3000 rmps. In these settings the two jets do get incrementally more pressure, however when I switch to Spa mode the lower of the two jets seem to have as much pressure as the ones to the left, but the upper right jet is still notably less.
Could it be a leak in the pipe that goes to those jets? (prone to paranoia ?
here are photos from the build
