I am having a very frustrating problem...
I have a Hayward EC-75 filter that is becoming air-bound within minutes of starting the pump. The pump has no priming issues and there are no bubbles in the pump basket. However, there are usually significant bubbles coming out of the return after I bleed the filter. Then the bubbles stop and everything but within an hour the filter is airbound and I have to bleed significant air from the filter to get the water flowing again. Then in an hour it's repeat again. I have a Hayward in-line chlorinator next to the filter (not sure if this matters). I've checked the o-rings and seals around everything and I am at a loss where the leak is coming from...thanks in advance for any responses.
