Hello all. New member with almost NO knowledge about pools!
I live in Southern California and we just had a massive rain storm with high winds over the last few days. This put a lot of leaves and twigs in my pool and before I had a chance to sweep them out, it looks like something has gotten clogged in the piping.
My Hayward Navigator vacuum seems to be working okay (same basic "speed" as normal), but the waterfall from the jacuzzi to the pool has gotten VERY WIMPY (it's usually about double what you see in the link), so I need to find out what I can do to fix this.
I've already cleaned out all the filters (pool skimmer and filter pump) but it's still wimpy. I also noticed that the large 4 filter housing that has the pressure gauge on top of it is registering 50 pounds, and that seems high to me.
Is there any way to back flush the system to dislodge whatever's in there? I have a PENTAIR INTELLITOUCH SYSTEM I5 with a CLEAN & CLEAR PLUS filter system.
