Duncan, Ok
So I need to order some parts and want to make sure I’m on the right track. First off I did a diy winterization and failed. Lesson learned. Forgot to shopvac the lines out. After repairing the busted pipes I noticed my filter housing on my pump is severely cracked at the bottom below the strainer basket. Also my dog chewed the drain cap nosel on my filter the big round part that holds the sand. Can I just order the filter and the pump housing? We only have 1 pool store in town and well, you know how they are.

In other threads, I see the experts recommending a call to INYOpools to see if they have the parts needed for a specific situation. You may want to try that. Although, I think with replacing both the filter and potentially the wet end for the pump, you may be better off getting everything new (including the motor).
 
Thanks and I agree. I did call INYO and they don’t have the replacement parts anymore. Their pump filter recommendation was just too expensive for my budget. Going to try the Rx Clear Radiant 24” filter with 1hp pump combo.
