First post here.
In North Texas, pump running on freeze protection.
I noticed bubbles coming from one jet and looked in the top of the pump and saw lots more air than usual. Replaced O-Ring and greased it up good. Still bubbles and air.
Checked the skimmers, which are usually empty, but we have had lots of wind and 100 times more stuff has been blowing into the pool from neighboring yards the past couple days. I've been trying to use my net to get them up whenever I remember.
Anyway, one skimmer had a few leaves. The other had the basket floated up and a bunch of leaves beneath the basket. I tried to reach in an pull as as many as I could as quick as possible. But, many still went to the pump. Turn the pump off and pop the top and the leaves all get sucked back into the lines. How can I get these out?
