    Congrats! It's always nice to hear the outcome to problems we've adressed

    Having done construction and service for 4 pool companies in 4 states starting in 1988, what I know about pools could fill a couple of books - what I don't know could fill libraries

    Thanks so much, Waste
    We were told to not use the one valve (the line that he fixed) until this morning because of some adhesive he used. So this morning, I turned on the pump and very slowly started opening that second valve, when all the sudden I started see air - lots of it, and then starting lose the prime on the pump. So I immediately closed that valve, waited for the basket to fill, and then tried again. This time it worked perfectly and the water in the basket is as clear as a bell with NO air bubbles I even checked again before I left for work just to make sure.

    Thanks again
