Hello,
Having an issue with Spa Return line, seems to be blocked.
I just drained about 80% of pool and 100% of spa, also used shop vac to clean out dirt build up under spa drain cover. After refilling pool and spa, then running pump for a while in pool mode (pulling water from pool drain and skimmers) everything looked to be working perfect, but when when I switched to Spa mode ( pulling water from spa drain) the pump basket went dry. I stopped the pump, removed cover and basket and no water is coming out like it usually does, note my pool/spa is about 8 feet higher than the pump due to elevation changes across property which causes water to pour out anytime pump cover is removed.
I filled pump/basket with water, reinstalled cover, started pump and same issue, goes dry.
Pretty sure I have air locked the return line from the spa, wanted to check if any tricks to fix this.
Thanks!
