Waterfall Pump Additional Notes

The pool's filtration pump also operates the waterfall by turning an automated valve actuator. The actuator is adjusted to only partially open, thus splitting the return water between the waterfall's return line and the pool's return lines. There are two upper bowls among the rock cluster and each has a pipe installed. One provides water and the other is labeled as "Air" and does not appear to have any water flowing. There is also a capped off stub up at the Equipment Pad that could be the other end of this pipe? If so and if the "Air" pipe is operational (no leaks) it could be connected to the waterfall return and become functional by designating a higher pump speed to the VS pump. This could provide STRONGER WATERFALL EFFECT.

Overall Details

Due for maintenance, medium equipment pad, Required every 10-15 years, all valving must be opened, cleaned, lubricated, and re sealed to ensure longevity of equipment.
No, the equipment pad is not UV protected by a UV protectant paint, recommend painting this pad to ensure long PVC piping life as well as certain equipment, The equipment appears to be in direct sunlight a large portion of the day. By simply covering the equipment with a UV mesh shade ($25-55 on Amazon + Installation) you will see approx 3x equipment life and 3x less equipment breakdown. This is recommended here.
