I'm away on vacation and made the mistake of allowing some family members to use the pool in our absence. Evidently on Sunday, they picked the Viio Turbo cleaner out of the water and placed it on the patio. Afterwards, they left. With the cleaner on the patio but still hooked up to its return port.
Now, my Jandy system runs the cleaner for two hours a day, and runs the Jandy 2HP variable stealth pump 12 hours a day. Today my brother stopped by to check on the house and noticed the pool water level was low and water surface was still. He's the one that reported that the cleaner was on the patio.
So, beginning Monday (today is Thursday), the pump was probably ejecting all sorts of water onto the patio until the water level dropped below the skimmers and the pump started sucking air.
On the phone I had him reset all the breakers and make sure the control was calling for Filter Pump to be "ON", and he said nothing nada happened noise-wise back at the pump.
So, I get back next weekend to a headache. My guess is that the pump impeller would seize up, and then motor eventually burn out? Any other ideas? And how serviceable are these or am I likely to be looking at another one?
