quick update Yep, it was the soft, mad like crap in my drain pipe, we found 2 inch clean up pipe in garage. Small electric Auger did the trick. It looks like I have 2 inch drain pipe but 1 1/2 inch stand pipe. Now everything drains fine. Thanks for your help.

I am relocating my pool equipment to the new location. I have gas heater that heats up the water in the pool. The hot water line is CPVC 2 inch that goes into 1-1/2 cooper pipe (may be 4 ft) that goes to PVC or CPVC line (I am not sure I need to dig deeper) under the pool. Can some one...
