I’ve had my Auto fill off for a few weeks, preferring to fill by hose to ensure my water softener registers the flow. I've turned it back on to help me keep up. When I did so the back flow began discharging rhythmically from the backflow preventer (see video below).
It has since stopped but trying to figure out why this happened so I can address if necessary.
My pool is a flooded system so there is always some amount of pressure from the pool water pressing back on the backflow preventer. Maybe this was my autofill fighting that pressure as the pool pushed back?
