Hello, bought a house with a 16 x 32 vinyl lined pool and this is my 2nd swim season. System as follows:
HW Super Pump
HW DE filter
Coverstar above deck auto cover
Issues I'm working on:
1. My pump loses suction while vacuuming. Very intermittent, it seems if I crack the bottom drain the pressure is more consistent. Pressure needle dives 5-6 psi below normal operating pressure when drain is fully closed. I constantly have to play with it making vacuuming a 3 hr process.
2. Considering a separate solar cover for May and September. My Coverstar doesn't seem to heat the pool as my neighbor's larger pool was uncovered and at a warmer temp than mine.
Looking to get 'promoted' or cleared as a non-spammer so I can search the forums.
Thanks,
Brian
