This cleaner is consistently leaking debri, it appears it is coming through the top. Any thoughts on repair? It occurs on pleated ultra fine basket also.

just looking for pooling water ?

hello, Ill be draining my pool in half this weekend to cut cya down before summer this will be my first time doing this. I’m in San Antonio, tx it’s been fairly dry the last few years, do I need to worry about the pool popping out? I estimate the pool to be about 20,000 gallons, I rented a 60...

Yeah not sure sure why it’s so close. There’s capped plumbing about 10ft down to the left. Whoever re ran the plumbing moved it much closer to the breakers. I have several feet to the left. Yes debri returning to the pool. Pool is full sun but surrounded by neighboring trees. Constantly...

Hello all, I have a pretty straight forward setup. I upgraded to a vs pump about 2 years or so ago. I’m now looking to change up the filtration system. I’m over this cartridge cleaning, and im finding some blow back, I’ve tried new filters making sure they are seated well but no luck. The filter...

That’s about 2 days worth! I’m heavily tree’s around here, so the last three weeks have been war. I blew off my roof today and should be about done with this spring mess. What was strange about that pic is the debris is mostly in the upper third of the filter. Cleaned it again today and it was...

I’m pretty sure, I replaced the dirty one with one from Amazon, thought that was the issue so I picked up a Hayward from my local pool supply. I’ll confirm tho. Where would it not seal, at the bottom? I feel like it sitting in their properly .

Hello friends, I am comming home to a dirty pool most days, just finer debris sitting at the bottom of the pool. I thought I may be the robotic pool cleaner blowing dirt out the top. But I have been running the cleaner in the evening for its 3 hr cycle and waking up to a fairly clean pool. When...

My Polaris booster pump has seemed to call it quits. It's only two years old. When I turn it on it hums for a few seconds then nothing. I replaced the starter capacitor thing on top but did not remedy the issue. The pool does not get too much debri, I was running the polaris a couple times a...

Hello, my existing booster pump crapped out on me. I have owned the pool for 2 years so im not quite sure how old it was, but it looked pretty weathered and just stopped working the other day. I purchased a replacement and installed it identically to the previous. The replacement is pretty loud...

I have a quick connect hose connecting the Polaris pump to the return, I've had the pool for about a year, with no issue like this. Today after running for a couple hours the quick connect fitting just burst off. After some trouble shooting it stays on just fine when the pool pump is on but as...

Found the issue finally... A lot of digging and frustration later I found a bad connection under ground, under the deck. Looks like they used some bs coupling.

Knowing my luck it's underneath my cement patio...

Yeah obvious things like enough water in the pool were checked prior. When I originally had the issue water level was fine just air in the return. Over the next serval days water level lowered however it wasn't clear if it was evaporation related, relatively warm water compared to a overnight...

Ok I cannot locate the issue, over the last few days the water level dropped below the skimmer line, went out this morning and lifted the skimmer basket to find there to be almost no water in the skimmer. The pump has been off the entire time, this would indicate that there may be a leak in the...

Thank you for taking the time to reply, I lit an incense, one of those sticks that lets out a smokey aroma, the smoke is was being pulled towards the back of the pump behind the basket. See the slots left of the pump? The suction was strong enough to hold a leaf against the slot. Would that...

Sure is, I put the house back into the supply line from the pump basket and water seemed to run freely back to the skimmer. Gonna keep investigating...

Sure did, not having much luck I just replaced/lubed the lid gasket, inspected the three joints in front of the basket all appear well put together, tried wrapping joints in a wet cloth and running water over basket lid. Hmmmm....

Hello, I purchased a home in August with my first pool, owner seems to have taken great care. I came home the other day to find significant air coming out of the return lines, whirlpool action in the pump basket, no pressure in the filter, reads 0. Water level is perfect, and pump is returning...
