I usually hire out the pool closing. The guy uses a small pancake compressor and not sure if he creates an airlock with the main drain as he removes the jandy valve handle and cover.
I have a long pipe run so I want to purchase the air supply cyclone to blow out the lines, just a couple questions on how to do it.
1.) To blow out the returns I attach the cyclone to the red circled hose with the filter set on circulate? Once all blown out cap them.
2.) To blow out skimmer attach cyclone to the yellow circled hose with the main drain shut. Then open main drain blow it out and quickly turn valve to skimmer to create an air lock?
Is this correct?
Thanks for any help people can provide
