PoolKid Posted September 10, 2017 Report Share Posted September 10, 2017 Hi! First year with a pool, probably some missing info: 100,000l inground, sand filter, salt water, solar heating pump runs 12hrs a day on timer, solar blanket on unless swimming i backwash/rinse every week yesterday went outside and noticed the pump was running dry - almost no water in pump skimmer basket, and the water that was there was HOT! I see from other forums I have to replace some seals, o-rings and check for melting, I can do that... but! Why would this happen in the first place? i can leave the hose turned on in the pump skimmer basket for 30 mins, and it never overflows and if I turn pump back on it immediately drains the pump skimmer basket and runs empty. stumped. All help, links are GREATLY appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
