Crackling sound in pool.
we have a 33,000 gallon inground pool. It was resurfaced three years ago.
Recently we started hearing a crackling type of sound (kind of like sea coral )while walking around the entire pool When we turn the pump off the sound stops. When you turn the pump back on the sound restarts after a minute or so

any idea??

Thanks
 
Do you hear the crackling sound specifically when walking around the pool or when standing anywhere near the pool? How close to the pool do you need to be to hear it? Is the volume the same in all places?

Do you have any bubbles coming out of the returns?

Where is your equipment pad located relative to the pool?

Post pics of your pool.
 
I hear the crackling pretty consistently walking around the entire pool. At about 6 to 7 inches from the pool you can hear it.

yes there are bubbles coming out of the return and the pump is about 15 feet away from the pool. Volume appears to be uniform throughout

Any difference in the crackling sound when in the pool?

Show us pics of your equipment and valves.

What type of filter and what is your filter pressure?
 
Half your pipes and valves are missing from that pic.
