Hi guys,
I am a new pool owner with a problem. My pool was fill about 2 weeks ago and has been running flawlessly until about 3 days ago when I noticed the pressure on my filter jumped from 20 psi to 36 psi.
I checked the filter and it was a little dirty but not excessive in my opinion. I sprayed the cartridges down and put it back together.
When I started the pump the pressure was again at 20 psi but slowly rose to 36 psi again.
i am not sure if this is significant but I “think” this problem only happened after heating the pool overnight.
There is also very very little flow from the return jets
My pool builder has been great but is on vacation right now so cannot really help.
Are there any simple checks that I can do or am I missing something completely?
Thanks.
