Epic Fail with low-power, low-speed pumps Another leaf trap that floats and sucks air - the seal on this is horrible. The first time I installed this, I found it floating full of air - luckily my system was pulling water elsewhere. This issue is solved with weights, lots of weights. However, the bigger problem is that this thing does not adequately seal at lower pump rates. The seal is very dependent on suction. For my low power pump, this means that 90% of the time, there's not enough suction to keep maintain the seal - so ... read more
