Banging my head against a wall trying to figure out what's going on. Installed solar panels on my roof and plumbed them in and all was good for a day or 2. Went out and all of a sudden filter pressure jumped 10psi and the water flow rate in to the pool was significantly worse. Took the filter apart and cleaned it all out, put it back in and same problem. Used to run about 10psi on a clean filter, 20 when dirty. Now its sitting at 22psi. Flipped the valve to recirculate to bypass the filter and see if that helps, still low flow. Thought there might be a clog so put a shopvac to all the lines and snaked the ones I could to try to clean them out, no luck. Just cant figure out what the heck is going on. Any thoughts or ideas appreciated.
Attached some pics of the pool plumbing to get a view.
Would an algae bloom cause all these issues?
