I'm new to TFP, so thanks for reading a newbie's post.
I have an in-ground pool with an attached spa/hot tub in my backyard. The spa has 6 valves/vents. The pool/spa is about 3 years old. When we were in the spa last night I noticed that 5 of the 6 vents/valves had strong air pressure blowing during spa operation. The 6th had some pressure but it was MUCH lower than the rest. Then today during normal pool operation, the 5 valves have good water pressure coming out (normal), BUT the "bad" vent actually has suction now instead of water pressure coming out. I put my finger in the non-working valve and can't feel anything.
I have some electrical fish tape that I was going to insert and see if it hits anything, but wanted to check with this group before I try anything.
I'm wondering if anyone has a suggestion or way to troubleshoot what might be going on??
