AIR BUBBLES IN THE PUMP ARE CAUSED BY A LEAK ON THE SUCTION SIDE OF THE PUMP (SKIMMER OR MAIN DRAIN LINE). TO DETERMINE IF YOUR LEAK IS ABOVE GROUND LOOK FOR SPURTS OFF WATER SHOOTING FROM ONE OF THOSE LINES AS YOU TURN THE PUMP OFF. THE SUDDEN STOPPING OF THE WATER FLOW WILL CAUSE IT TO SHOOT OUT OF THE SOURCE. NOTE THAT A LITTLE WATER COMMING FROM THE PUMP LID ON SOME MODELS IS NORMAL AND NOT THE CAUSE OF THE LEAK. IF YOU DO NOT SEE ANYTHING YOUR LEAK MAY BE BELOW GROUND. TO DETERMINE THIS SHUT DOWN ONE LINE AT A TIME TO DETERMINE THE LINE THE AIR IS COMMING FROM. IF YOU HAVE A BROKEN LINE UNDERGROUND YOU WILL NEED TO HAVE A TEST DONE TO LOCATE THE LEAK SO IT CAN BE REPAIRED. HOPE THIS HELPS. FEEL FREE TO E MAIL ME IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO DISCUSS THIS FURTHER.

∙ 8y agoIf you have a saline system (salt water pool) tiny hydrogen bubbles will appear in the water being returned to the pool. This is normal and shows that your saline system is working well. If you don't have a salt system, the bubbles are a result of air leaks usually originating on the suction side of the pump - like at the leaf pot.

∙ 15y agoUsually the air that gets caught in it will dissipate by the time the pump has run for a while.
However if there is a continuing problem with a lot of air getting into the system, constantly You may have a leak between the pool and the pump on the suction side. If you get more air when the intake is restricted than when the flow from the pool is free then there is a good chance that air is getting sucked into the system some where. it could be a loose valve or O ring or valve or possibly a bad pipe joint or crack.
