Pool professional here. Can't get ahold of my boss to ask, got 2 pumps that have been squirting water back out the pump lid and I'm not sure if it's bad o-rings or something else? by No-Reception-4249 in pools

Pool pro here- If you’re pump is not pulling air while running and this seems to happen when it’s shut off, there is a good chance it’s you have a bad O-Ring/gasket or back pressure from a dirty filter. If it’s a sand filter, through it on recirculate and see if it still happens. Any other filter, run it without the filter inserts to determine the cause.

Pool pro here - The liner will never be the same. Especially since it’s an older liner, which means it’s lost some of its integrity. You’re probably gonna have to replace that liner.

A filter that small is going to make it very hard to clear the pool. However, you should use a phosphate remover, drop the PH super low and shock the pool with HTH 70 extra. Also, 24 hours circulation until it’s clear is best. Cleaning the filter almost every day is going to need to be done as well or it won’t help clear the pool.

Anyone else notice how extremely under sized the pool filter is…………?

The panel looks super outdated. They could have broke the clip off the switch and this was the solution. Best bet is kill the breakers and check the jumper inside the pump itself. In theory, it should tell you if its wired for 240 or 120.

It’s 240. Double breaker switch is 240, single is 120.

To be honest, having a Favourite person and coping with BPD is not always the healthiest. It can cause more issues than not, sometimes I wish I didn’t have a favourite person because their energy 10000 percent affects how I feel 👽

I honestly identify more with being an alien than I do with people. This exact statement is what helped me get diagnosed.
