Filter keeps losing suction power

Thanks Doc.

I did not have the problem in Recirculate mode.

Is it fixable or time for a new filter?

Thanks.

Sorry, I don't know anything about "Starbright" filters, and without seeing a parts list I don't know.

The o-ring where the valve body connects to the filter was broken. I replaced it. That helped some. It runs longer before losing power. Still not right though.

I found a hairline crack in the multi-valve top. Put some JB Weld on it. Working fine now.

Thanks.
