Ok, this saga with fiancee's pool started with the return to the pool sending bubbles. Plus, when the valves were in pool mode, the return valve had to be shaded slightly off the spa return being closed. (The spa drain obviously was leaking when in pool mode.) So, I changed out the three O-rings, and things worked great for a very short time.
No bubbles in the return. The 3 way return valve could be turned all the way to off of the spa, since the spa drain closed up.
But, the old Whisperflo pump ran with no water for a day or so, and the pump basket was warped. For some reason the pump unions were loose. Not sure why.
Wanting a new VSP for her, this now seemed like the right time to get the VSP.
Installed the Intelliflo 011018, but could not get spa to work. Switching the Jandy suction 3 way valve would just lead to no pressue in the filter. Tried various ways to test for flow from the spa drain, they always seem to be open spa piping, with no apparent blockage.
Changed out some of the piping when installing the Inteliflo. Changed out most of the rest of the spa suction piping today,but still spa won't drain. Was running pump in various modes, and notice 750 RPM, which was very quiet, that there was a air leak when the 3 way valve was in spa mode.
So, off to try O-ring replacement one more time, or just replace the whole Jandy 3-way valve.
