I opened my 3 year old 27000 gallon inground pool this week. The cover came off in the winter and while taking the cover off, more leaves fell into the pool. I primed my Hayward variable speed pump and it seems it was working well. I could not see the bottom. The deep end is 8’. It’s a vinyl liner.
The next morning the pump had only a little water in it and it was running at 1900rpm. I put it up to 3200 and it filled up. Today it’s not filling up even at 3200rpm. There were a ton of leaves and worms at the bottom. And I still haven’t gotten it all out. If there is something clogged, how can I clear it? I have no idea how to troubleshoot this issue. I’m going to try to upload a video of the pump running. Also there are air bubbles shooting out of the jets.
Intent let. E upload a video.
