If you're talking about your pool filter, it should be set to filter or run. Use the bypass or recirculate setting if you wish to circulate the water without having the water pass through the filter. Use the backwash setting to clean the filter.
If you have a sand or DE filter the setting is filter in the case of cartridge filters it is filter as always unless there are other settings for your particular setup.
Normal pH should be between 7.4-7.6
It should be on "FILTER"
The "Rinse" will also take water out, but you should really have a waste setting. Call a local pool company or the maker of your filter system.

You can vacuum a salt water pool the same way you would a non salt water pool. If you are vacuuming on the filter setting, your filter will help to clean the debris out of the pool. If you are dealing with a very dirty pool and use the waste setting, you will be wasting some of the water from the pool in the process. Depending on how much water you take out and need to refill, you will most likely need to add some salt back in to get your salt level back to normal operating levels.
THE NORMAL GAUGE PRESSURE SHOULD STAY AROUND 12 TO 19 P.S.I

A good way to see if you have a leak in your pool is to # take a bucket and fill it with water from your pool. # mark it at the water level. # mark the pool at the water level. # wait a few days if there is no leak in the pool then the water level in the bucket should have reduced by the same amount as the water level in the pool, however if the water level in the pool has gone down more then the water level in the bucket you have a leak in the pool or in the pipes around the pool.

A pool motor capacitor helps start and run the pool motor by storing and releasing electrical energy. It provides the necessary power boost to start the motor and helps maintain a consistent speed during operation. Without the capacitor, the pool motor may struggle to start or run efficiently.
