Hi all, wonderful site here - you all have helped me figure out how to maintain my pool for the last ~6 years and it's been autopilot ever since adding bleach every day and enjoying a wonderful algae free pool. I've added solar heating to the pool since installing it and that also works great but I need a second set of eyes on what seems to be an impossibility...
Here's my pump and filter and I've annotated which direction I believe the water is flowing.
Here is a close up of the see through stop door or whatever that thing is called.
To be clear, water is flowing to the pool - but this 'door' looks like it is closed - am I right? There is one entry point to the filter and one exit point and this has to be the exit but that door is closed. Meanwhile the SWG clearly has water running through it.
What gives?! What am I missing?
