Hey all new to the forums and new to the maintaining of the pool my self. So I've had a heck of a time trying to get everything working correctly with my system. I'll start off by saying that this system is an older system, and came with the house when I bought it. That being said I think whoever had the pump or took care of the pool before either messed with it or replaced it with non standard parts. The band that holds the thing together started to leak water out of it.. I'm thinking maybe the Oring or seal is messed up? I only noticed someting was wrong when I was coming back form my little one's performance and heard a unfamilar sound.. I checked the pressure and it showed no pressure at all and there was water around the thing. So I am not sure how long it couldve been running dry?...
My main concerns are where can I find the correct parts for my system... and how worried should I be about it running dry if that's the correct term?
I also noticed that the system keeps throwing DE back into my pool... I'm not sure if that's related to all of this. I've fought tooth and nail with my pool this year to get it to this semi cloudy clear green lol, and just as it feels like I'm almost at the point where it'll be nice and clear this happened today.
