Hello,
Pool opened up pretty easily this year, except the pump refused to start up because the impeller was jammed. I got it moving my hand it has been going fine since. The heater is keeping it at 71 degrees until the weather gets a little warmer.
This morning I walked outside and could hear my pump making quite a racket. I sprayed some WD40 into the back of the pump's fan blade, and it did nothing. It is pumping water as expected but it's noisy. Bearings? Time for a new unit?
Looked over to the heater and there are 2 nice lines of frost on the vents, and on one of the pipes inside. Seems coincidental that the frost appeared at the same time as the heater started making noise. I turned the temperature down to give the heater a break but am concerned that it needs work too.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you.
