Welcome to TFP.
It is the way it is plumbed at the pool.
Makes no difference where water gets into the pool.
No.

Thanks! Noted.
Well I have lots of bubbles in 1 & 2 which I never noticed as the pool always runs in pool/spa mode. Recently found a leak in the spa so only have water pulling and going into the pool. With the switch, the bubbles have become really noticeable. Thought maybe the lack of eyeballs was allowing most of the volume/pressure to come to the 2 nearest returns. But I’ve replaced the gasket on the pump basket and checked all the couplings for the leaks. Only thing I haven’t done is change the o rings at the 3 way on the suction. Did the soap test and didn’t see any air leaks at equipment.
Just trying to tackle these air bubbles!
No I have lived here for several years and have a company take care of it for me. In the process of getting new plaster soon!
What would you recommend? I spray dawn powerwash over the union and didn’t notice any seep into the pipe.

Dancing around from all sides. I don’t know how to load video but took a crappy flash pic.

Watch carefully and shut off the pump.
An air leak on suction will drip some water when the pump is shut off due to the back pressure.

No luck. I will try tomorrow when the sun is out. Where are all the possible spots it could from? Anywhere before the intake?
