The spider gasket in your valve may be deteriorated. Buy a spider gasket and some silicon grease at your pool store. Remove the screws in the multi-port valve and replace the spider gasket after you thorough cover it wth grease.

To keep this from happening again, never add chlorine through your skimmer. Always use a floater if you use tablets or install an off-line chlorinator as far away from the filter as possible. Hatawa

Broken back wash valve part in a sand filter. Replace valve assy. Torn or damaged grids in a

D. E. filter. Remove, clean and replace in the latter. Broken latterals in a sand filter - remove and replace. Unfortunately with a sand filter you have to remove all the sand first. Be sure that when you replace the #20 silica sand - you cover the stand pipe in the center of the filter other wise you are going to get a lot of sand blosing back to the pool for a while.kk

Why does this truck keep blowing out the gasket on the oil filter. it is on a 1998 F150 4.6L any ideas as to why?

One of two possible issues... Remove the exsisting filter, check that it's rubber sealing ring is still attached to the cartridge. Then use a flash light and a small pick, and check to confirm that a previous cartridge gasket is not become embedded in the machined seating ring of the mount. If so, remove the old gasket, and reseat filter. A second possibility is that the threaded cartridge mount is damaged, and is not alllowing the cartridge to seat fully against the machined ring.

Your filter pressure goes up and you lose return flow even after cleaning?

Cartridge and DE filters are the most prone to what is commonly referred to as "short cycling". This is when you clean the filter and the pressure goes back up right away. Over time, debris gets entrapped in the fabric cartridge element or DE grid material and it can not be removed by backwashing or cleaning. You can try a filter cleanser but it would be best if you replaced them.


Can the psi on my pool pump be too low?

The psi on your pool pump indicates how much dirt there is in the filter, the cleaner the filter the lower the psi. normally when the filter is clean you wil have a low psi and as the filter gets dirtier it will rise. However if the psi suddenly becomes much lower then usual it may indicate a fault in the filtration is letting unfiltered water circulate back into the pool as in a torn filter cartridge.
