OH one more thing. as was quoted it does look like you have a SWG salt water generator. when you go to the pool store have them test for salt too. I am not familiar with what your is. but my old anchient one has a button on it the reads out what my level of salt is. you need it 2000 and not...

PS do not stop brushing the pool. it removes a coating the green algae makes and it becomes easier for the bleach to kill the green. it too may help every 4 days until clear. since the test strips first one CYA level looks good for a SWG pool and second shows CL 10+ Ph 7.8 and the TA or...

well my new taylor test kit has some items made in China so I am suspicious as to the QUALITY! use kit, free store testings and test strips made in USA as a 'guide'...with "patience." yes I did say to add a 1/3 what she was going to do. the retest....you do not need a ton of CYA if you use...

if there is flow you should have some kind of pressure in my book... how long has it been since you installed a new $7 gauge? you might be by-passing the filter due to a leak in the backwash valve with a bad or misplaced gasket. I had mine get stuck to the valve this year when I opened my pool up.

ismile, look up youtube, there are several movies and instructional videos there to help you understand what each positions of the backwash valve do. some explain it some not so good. like waste ; rinse; backwash; bypass and then filter, there is also a closed one. as for the pressure gauge...

in my filter there is a auto air vent. http://www.pentairpool.com/pdfs/TritonIIOM.pdf item #9 and there is a hose to a damaged filter screen than may leak the silt back into the pool. I have the same issue but found solution looking with search.... maybe it is yours too.
