Should water come out the jets if on Rinse

[timrf79]

I ahve my Multiport Valve set to "Rinse" in order to reduce the water in my pool.
Noticed there is still water coming out the jets (where the water normally goes in the pool under normal operation).

Now i am wondering does this indicate an issue with the valve or is that normal?

Post a pic of the Multiport valve you have.

It should have a WASTE setting that drains water directly out of the pool.

RINSE is what you use with backwashing and the water should come out of the waste line, not the pool returns.

Sounds like you may have a torn spider gasket.
I tore mine, turning it to waste during cold winter freeze. Things were not quite thawed out.

If I ever use recirculate, some garden hose level of pressure comes out the waste hose, but all other settings ok.
