You may have debris caught up in the impellers, the pump motor may be on its way out or if you have a cartridge filter the cartridge may be clogged with mineral deposits see if the pressure in front of the filter is always high if it is your pool shop will have the right gear for cleaning it out. A: Clean or back wash the filter and recharge with new D. E. as needed. Clean out or empty the skimmer and pump baskets. If it has been over 25 - 30 days since you last cleaned the filter either by back washing or hosing the cartridge elements then your filter is dirty. High pressure reading on the filter tank gauge is the first indication that the filter is dirty and needs cleaning. k
