  1. Thanks everyone for your suggestions. The pool company we hired, "Total Pool Care", wasn't exactly "total". My husband bought an immersable mini camera. We snaked it down the pipe toward the main drain. We saw the blockage about 5 ft down, at the bend. Palm debris. We bought a plumber's snake, but found it too slow. We rented a powered snake and had it cleared in 15 minutes. Thanks again for the tips.
  2. Thanks guys. I'll look into that "pool plunger" if the problem still exists after Wed. The pool guy is going to put another set of eyes on our problem. Doesn't sound promising.
  3. We have a 12 year old pool. Our filters are clean. The cleaning system pulls through the skimmers, but not through the main pool drain. It works fine when on spa mode, too. We did have a time of lots of wind. and debris may have gotten stuck down main drain. We heated the pool and stuck a wire hanger down the main drain to try and unclog potential blockage - to no avail. We tried a "bladder" going through where the wire basket is to use water pressure to blow out anything- to no avail. Do we need to buy a "snake" or some other special tool to unclog this area? Any tips on how to proceed would be appreciated.
