This is really only the second full year I’ve had the pool (went in at end of season in 2020) so pump is newish. It is a Hayward Superpump 700 single speed. A few times since I’ve opened the pool this year, in the mornings or after I vacuum, and start the pump up, it seems to get going fine, then after about 5 minutes all of a sudden the water level in the skimmer drops and the water pours into the skimmer opening quite forcefully for a minute, then it seems to stabilize and go back to normal for a few minutes, and then repeats this indefinitely unless I switch off the pump and restart. After restarting sometimes it will be fine. When it does this the water inside the pump is full to the top but it looks turbulent, and it’s not usually. Any ideas on what might be going on here? I’m at a loss. Thanks.
