Can anyone help me trouble shoot a water flow issue with my pool. When I turn my waterfall on my salt chlorinater tells me that there is no water flow. When not running water feature there is no issue.
I can't tell from the pics but, it seems likely that that the plumbing to the water feature diverts too much water from the SWCG. If this is not normally a problem then your filters probably need to be cleaned to increase available water flow.
It was not a problem for the first year just started acting up last month. Might be a filter issue because when I clean it it works fine for a few days and then start acting back up. How often should I be replacing my filter?
Does your water feature run at a much slower speed then the filtration/cleaning runs on?
Filters do get slightly less efficient as they get older. Requiring a little higher speed for the same flow as you had when new.
I answered your filter cleaning question on your other thread. I haven't replaced my filters in 3 pool seasons I clean once in spring and once in fall. But, if algae gets away from you then you'll have to clean every few weeks until you get all the algae killed.
