Hi all, brand new pool owner here. On my setup (details below) each time I change the position of my filters multi position valve my pump completely/rapidly loses prime (I can hear the water draining back into the pool). PB says this is normal, but wanted to get second opinions from you fine experts.
Pump holds prime fine under normal start/stop conditions.
- speck variable speed pump, 2.7 THP
- pump is above pool level maybe a foot, no flooded suction
- pentair sand filter
I also had a question about these pentair quarter turn valves. I see they can be adjusted to multiple positions. Is it possible the PB installed them in such a way that they can't be fully closed?
Thanks in advance for the help!
