Hi
New pool owner with a few questions. When I turn the pump on, after 15 to 20 seconds, I will get air bubbles shooting out of my return jet. This will only last for about 10 seconds and then it will go back to normal. I checked the pump lid, no air bubbles completley clear. Checked all suction side connections. ( Poured water over fittings to see if I can pinpoint air getting sucked in.) Ive tried opening air relief valve on filter and water shoots out like it should. Not sure what to check next.
I did notice that when I shut the pump off, I hear gurgling coming from the pipes connected to my heat siphon. Also when pump is turned on sounds like the heat siphon pipes are filling up. Not sure if this is normal.
Wondering what to check next or if this is normal since the system blows out the air bubbles for 10 seconds and then runs fine after that.
Great site by the way, lots of good info.
