Good morning all,
I had the pool refurbished last fall. Everything is working as expected but I am running into a minor problem with the lines in to the pump.
We had a new skimmer with new lines, and added a step with two jets.
The way the skimmer was hooked up with 2 lines (no main drain). Both lines (1.5") as you can see go to the pump and everything else is normal. The issue I am having is that if I turn on both skimmers lines on, the water into the pump seems to cavitate as there is a lack of water coming in. If I run the separately there are no issues?
Thoughts, suggestions. I can run them separately or even plug one and have it as an emergency line in the event that something should happen to the other line. I would rather more circulation.
Thanks in advance,
C
