Hey all,
I posted here a year or two ago about an issue with air bubbles from my returns. I never was able to find the source and just decided to live with it but enough is enough.
I have a continuous stream of air bubbles from my return. They are there when running the filter and when on recirc.
I have a really simple set up. Two infeeds (skimmer and a 1.5in port), one return. 1hp Hayward super pump, Hayward de3620 filter, t-15 swg cell. 18x36 rectangle.
I have checked everything I can think of. New ring on the pump basket (with lube). New drain plugs. Water level is at the third screw on the skimmer. There isn't a single air bubble visible in the pump basket, not one. Opening the relief valve on the filter releases a steady stream of water, no air, not even little spurts of air. I ran the system with and without the swg running and that made no difference.
What's left that I haven't checked? Everything on the suction side (that I know of) has been checked twice and in some cases, replaced with new parts.
