Few days ago my energy filter started leaking when in use. Replaced the O ring and didn't change anything. Took the jar off and cleaned the threads and relubed the O ring. No change. Anything else to try beofore having to order a new one and replumb it? Here is the video:

 
Something is very wrong. Either it is cracked or it is not being installed properly.

It is needed for the pressure vacuum, correct?
 
I’ll reinspect for cracks, but didn’t see any last time. Would hate to buy a new jar then have to buy a whole new unit.

Yes, you open a valve that lets water flow to it and the filter at the same time and it powers the polaris. It has the filter because it comes straight from the pool, doesn’t get filtered other than the pump basket. All off one pump.
