All,
I have been struggling with an air leak in my system for the last two years. I can not find the air leak above ground. I know it must be underground.
I have 1.5 inch pipes and from everything I have learned on here, I believe that my pump is oversized.
I am not sure if I can just get a 3/4 HP pump to replace what I have and hope that it pulls in much less to no air or if I should run new pipes from the pool back to he pump. I have no problem getting a new pump and/or filter if needed to convert from 1.5 to 2 inch pipes. I would just like the air leak to stop.
It is so bad this year that you can see air bubbles on the sides of the pool all day long.
