Howdy All,
Went to open above ground pool this week and my hayward pump won't prime. System is setup as in my signature. It's worked in this configuration for 2 years.
What I've done:
- Checked all hard pipe connections and replaced a few to make sure there are no leaks.
- Ran water in the pump basket for a few minutes.
- Ran water down the intake line...no problems.
- Pulled all line, filter, pump o-rings, cleaned, lubed, and reconnected.
- Installed a new seal kit and impeller for the Hayward 1HP Superpump. When I disassembled it there were a few that looked suspicious so replaced everything. Pump is only 2 years old.
- Checked all connections again using soapy water...no rogue suction anywhere I can find.
- All baskets and filters are clear.
- I can see the pump pulling the water from the basket but that's it, nothing from the intake line.
Anything I've missed?
Thanks.
