Pool Pipes clogged

June 28th, 2006 · No Comments

My skimmer was dislodged and my pipes filled up with pine straw. I
used an auger and got a big chunk but the auger won’t make another
turn to pull out the rest. I am trying a drain jet to see if I can
push the clog.. Will this need to run a long time …it does seem to
stop and then the pressure builds up and releases but the pipe is
still clogged..or do I need to cut my pvc and add a new join to clean
out the pipe…Any other ideas…the pipe is about a 14 foot run with
5 bends…I am desperate!!
