After pool opening, the filter is leaking around the seam when the pool is spill over mode

[christinasam]

Had my pool opened last week. Was able to get things cleaned up quickly and its clear, balanced and running well. Except, I noticed that when the spa is spilling over into the pool for a couple hours in the morning, the filter leaks around the seams. Everything seems tight to me. I'm a newb managing my pool for the first time this summer, so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

C,

You either did not tighten the band enough or you need a new O-Ring..

Show us a pic of the band fastener..

Thanks,

Is this what you mean by fastener?

C,

I have no experience with that one..

What kind of filter? Where is it leaking (can you edit the picture to show where?)?
