Pool pump losing prime — Alkmaar, Noord-Holland
When a pool pump loses prime it sucks air instead of water, overheating the motor, starving the filter, and leaving the pool with zero circulation. Common causes include a cracked pump lid, a worn lid O-ring, an air leak in the suction plumbing, a clogged skimmer basket, or low water level. A pool and spa technician pressure-tests the suction side, replaces seals or fittings, and verifies steady prime before leaving.
