How can one assess if his pool has a clog in the filter line and how does he fix it?
Check the psi on the filter tank? If its lower than usual there is something stuck in the lines or jammed in the pump impeller. If its higher than normal, it just needs to be cleaned. Also, if you put the multiport handle into the recirculate position, this will bypass the filter. If everything works better in recirculate then you have a filter problem

To set up a sand filter for vacuuming the pool, first ensure the filter is turned off. Then, switch the valve on the filter to the "Waste" or "Vacuum" setting, which allows the dirty water to bypass the filter and go directly out of the waste line. Connect the vacuum hose to the skimmer or directly to the vacuum head, then submerge the vacuum head in the pool, ensuring there are no air pockets in the hose. Finally, turn on the pump to start vacuuming the pool.
