Hello all,
My fiance and I recently purchased a home here in Houston, being from the north we were certainly in the market for a home with a pool, considering the heat here! Ive been browsing the site for a few days now and its good to see I'm not the only one who doesnt know what they're doing and that they're are still good honest people out there willing to help. I have endless questions but I will start with my main concern. The pool has an Aries Vertical Grid Filter with a Hayward Super 2 pump. I have a kreepy krauler looking device plugged in and I understand that runs when the pump is running. It doesnt seem to be doing a good job. Its almost like there isnt enough pressure coming out where it is plugged in at to do a satisfactory job. I see there is three valves coming off the pump going into the pool, Im not even sure when or which ones need to be opened or closed. The pool water stays clean and clear and the filter and pump seem to work fine , something just doesnt seem right. I guess I am just looking for some basics if anyone can help!! The filter has been running around 10 psi, however I shocked and ran pump for 20 hrs or so and when I came home from work it was running at 20 PSI or so, any thoughts or advice? I know Im kind of all over the place but if there any advice anybody could offer I would really appreciate it .
Thank you so much !
I can post pictures if needed THANKS
