Small tears in the filter of your pool typically refer to small holes or openings in the filter. These tears can occur over time due to wear and tear, improper cleaning hacks, or sharp debris entering the filter system. Once you experience this issue, It's important to address and repair these tears quickly to maintain optimal filtration and prevent further issues.
