I was out adding chemicals to my pool and turned the pump on and heard an explosion from my equipment area, saw water flying, and knew what had happened. It appears the filter housing sheared off right at the lower contact point of the tension control clamp. Wow. Bummer, tomorrow is a holiday and we had a pool party planned.
Questions:
Questions:
- What could have caused this? I cleaned the filters two weeks ago so pressure was good. Is it possible I overtightened the tension control clamp?
- Can I simply buy a new lower housing or should I replace both top and bottom?
- Or should I buy an entirely different filter?
