Hi there TFP!
I've been using this site for roughly a week now, and the information available is incredible- so, thank you!
My problem
Pool pressure gauge drops to 0 PSI when set to skimmer only, only operates correctly w/ the main drain. Watch the video I recorded here to observe:
I haven't seen very many setups similar to this, and it seems almost too basic for the size of the pool we have. The house was built in 1972, and the pool was built that same year. It seems like the folks who flipped the house didn't really care or know how to deal with pools at all because I refused to sign until they added proper bonding to the motor, added a light, replaced the skimmer weir, skimmer lid, and main drain strainer lid. All they initially did was replace the motor & filter then called it a day.
I've attached some images, a few of them being from the inspection process. Did I adopt a very expensive project?
EDIT: Also, the water is level with the halfway point of the skimmer opening's mouth. There's water in the skimmer.
