    Default high recirc pressure, Low filter pressure

    Hi All,

    I got an inground pool (with the house) a few years ago and this year I decided to open it myself and I'm running into problem.

    On recirculation the pool pressure is very strong, however I hardly have any pressure when filtering. The impellar basket and strainer was area is clean and verified. Any Ideas?

    Much Appreciated,
    Ron

    What kind of filter do you have? Have you cleaned it?

    Your description pretty much ID's the problem as resting in EITHER your filter OR your filter valve.
