Hello all,
This thread is more me looking for advice from all of you trusted sources. I just recently had my pool construction completed. Start up was end of June 2019. This is my second pool (we recently moved) so I am not a novice, but not an expert either.
First some facts about current pool. I am in Texas, south of Dallas. It is an in ground, roughly 20,000 gallons, gunite construction shell with pebble finish, lagoon style darker blue color with a spa that spillways into the pool. All Jandy equipment, SWG, variable speed pump, separate pump for water fall, Jandy heater for spa, Polaris cleaner (think it is called black max). this pool also has what the builder called Pari-skim skimmers (not sure if spelling is correct). But they are a bit different than my last pool.
My issue is that one of my return lines spits out bubbles. The pool builder has been great so far, they have researched everything and plumbers were out yesterday to test the lines. They found all to be ok. Problem is still bubbles coming out of return. Some of the things I notice is when the VSP starts up on high there seems to not be bubbles and when it goes to low speed after priming the bubbles start. The pump basket lid starts with a very tiny bubble that will grow throughout the day (of course signifying air building). They left yesterday at a loss and I am not sure what route they are going to go next. This is where I am in need of all of your advice. Has anyone ever seen this ? I did read where a VSP pump can cause air, is that true? Where would you guys go from here. Air in the system is not good and I want to be informed when the builder calls with the next course of action. The pool is brand new and this is not normal correct?
Thanks to all of you very much prior to hearing from you. This forum is always very helpful. I have been on here since my first pool in 2012.
