    Skimmer not working while pool cleaner, waterfall are on

    Sorry for such a delay in posting. Thank you for all your help. I ended up having a pool company come out, and they said we needed a new filter. He said sometimes it can look clean on the accordion filter areas on the outside, but there can still be buildup on the inside. So, we got a new...

    ok...we just replaced the rubber feet(shoes) and the wings on the Navigator. Looks like it's working, but slow. Yes, the original paperwork on our pool said 100. Not sure if we've ever replaced it or just the cartridge. I couldn't read any of the labels on the actual filter casing. I know...

    We have a basket with a smaller inner basket inside it that does the bobbing when it is drawing the water into the skimmer.

    Pump should kick off soon. I'll check the gauge in a few.
