RE: air bubbles via return jets
My return jets did this and it was due to "channels" and an air pocket in my sand filter. A good minute on the RINSE feature to stir up and resettle the sand did the trick. No more bubbles! I did not, however, pay attention to pressure gauge during this episode. I'm pretty sure my pump primed and suction was good, though.
Hope this helps and keep us posted.
