I have a Teton 5200 submersible pump...the water runs through a UV light then up to a fountain that is fed through the bottom. I have a filter bag around it to keep debris from being sucked into it. I am having a major issue with air pockets forming in the system. I have thoroughly cleaned everything, The water flows fine for a shortperiod but then the air pockets form. Any ideas? Thanks.

How high is your fountain and how deep does it push air bubbles into the water when they fall back into the pond. Might be your pump is sucking in air bubbles that the fountain is causing.

Check all of your lines to make sure there are no leaks.
