I'm getting reduced suction in my Filter (Rainbow Lifeguard Filter - M series) and am not sure what happened. Pump strainer basket is clean. For my first stab at addressing the problem, I replaced the 4 cartridges especially since I didn't know how old the cartridges were. We purchased this house/ pool last year, so this is our second summer with this pool. Changing the cartridges improved the suction some, but it is still not up to what it has been in the past.
The pool store suggested I buy a pressure gauge on the filter which it does not have. Before I do that I would like to hear TFP thoughts on what else I should be considering. I don't want to throw $ in to a gauge if there are bigger issues to be addressed.
