Thanks for the explanation. It’s certainly what I observe to be happening. Hopefully that leaf guard cover I ordered allows me to quit having to worry about it so much. As it is I have to worry about a clog burning up my motor and potentially (though probably not very likely) causing a fire in my shed.When a skimmer is jammed full of debris it can interfere with the weir. Path of least resistance is its easier for the pump to suck air than water. Then prime is lost.
