Hello,
Trying to identify the issue here. WHen I run the filter, I notice bubbles coming out of the jets. The first place I looked was the basket on the pump. While running, there seems to be some mix of air in the basket as the water is swirling around (i can see through plastic top). This leads me to believe it is somewhere in the skimmer or skimmer line. What would or could be a likely cause here? or how should i begin to assess? Also, fully recognizing it may not be the skimmer line, I'll check anything.
I'm also wondering if I should try a water loss test? I havent seen any water loss, but the pump has been running non stop as I try to clear it after a ridiculous winter.(which by the way this shocking process is approaching 3 weeks, rather than the normal 8-10 days.
