What I'm worried about is that it's an old filter and the internals might be fragile if they are made of plastic. I can't tell all of you haw relieved I am that it's in the filter and not underground between the the filter and the pool.

I ran the pump on bypass for a few hours with none of the issues that I have been concerned about. I guess that means it is inside the filter. Should I just order three new laterals and have those on hand when I disassemble it? Are there any other issues inside the filter that could cause this...

Hi all, I am not a new pool owner but I am new to these forums. I am so glad to have found an online pool resource. As I said, I have had my pool for 12 years now (before that I was my parent's pool boy for years), but I am trying to get the pool going again after a long period of inactivity. My...
