[quote=Jpurdue]Mac Town... I wonder how that's possible with water moving that fast inside those pumps. Did your power go out at any point?[/quote
When that cleaner pump's not running, I don't think any water is moving thru it or those pipes.

Some water moves through the cleaner pump when the filter pump runs. but obviously not enough in this case.

My wife said we lost power for a bit this morning before I woke up. I’m assuming that’s when it occurred. When I pulled the drain plugs water came out of all the pumps, so I hope that means they are not damaged. I guess only time will tell the extent of the damage.

Even moving water freezes in a hurry in a heavy snow. I was trout fishing in WV in late winter in the snow. Big flakes. I kept feeling strikes and could not figure how I was missing so many fish. Then I looked in the river and it was freezing from bottom up with ice chunks flowing by.
