I have an A&A Quikpure ozone light installed on the suction side of my 13K gallon pool/spa
I have been fighting the check valve in the line. I noticed I wasn’t seeing “tiny ozone bubbles” anymore, like I did when system was first installed a year ago. I investigated to realize that the check valve ball seemed to be stuck and when looking at the ozone generator side of it, I could see “white stuff” in there. I chipped it out and blamed it on some stone mason work we had done that generated a lot of dust several months ago.
After cleaning it, I could feel suction again coming from that side and when all put back together I can feel a slight vibration when pump was running full speed, which led me to believe the check valve was working again.
Fast forward a few weeks later and it stopped again....no suction. I ordered a new check valve assembly (A&A OEM part) and installed, and was back to working (suction again and vibrating when pump at full speed)....but after a few more weeks it stopped again!! Wtf?. Anybody familiar with these things? Any trick to keep the check ball freed up so air can flow?
I have removed check valve and just put a straight union there with a ball valve but it’s sucking way too much air now and also allows system to suck air in when shut down, so is clearly not a good option
Any experts in here with advice or suggestion for me?
PS- I’ve tried to call A&A but the receptionist told me there was no “tech support”
