Hayward SP0714T Vari-Flo issue

[seanf1277]

Filter had been running fine and then all of a sudden, water started shooting out the top, right near the clamp holding down the valve. Tried to backwash and rinse which both work fine. But when I turn the filter setting back on, same issue. Thoughts?

What is the pressure?

Can you show the whole system?

Maybe the filter is cracked.

Those filters are known to crack near the neck.

Maybe the clamp is bad or loose or maybe a bad O-ring.

Pressure is at around 10-11 the entire time, both while running normally and when the issue started to occur.

I don’t see any crack that are visible anyways. What impact would a crack have on the PSI? Thanks
