With the pump drawing air, Thats what was causing my salt cell to drop and lint box to drop to half in the pump. Each time i switched it off and restarted it it would flow back to normal again. I thought it was the filter the whole time but it wasn't. I am how ever getting a 32 inch sand filter...

Hey all thanks for the replies! The pool builder found 2 3 inch cracks in the skimmer box yesterday. That explains why the flow was insufficent. Replacing it today.

Would a 26 inch sand filter be sufficient?

What would you suggest would be the best ONLY floor cleaner then? Ive tried the Dolphin Galaxy. Not bad. How about the Auquabot Neptune? Any thoughts on this one?

Ok thank you.
