    Default Re: Help...Sand Filter leaking

    Each time something goes wrong I see I'm still learning. That is great to know that it will be fine on low and use less electricity running 24/7 and slower filtered water is better. I did find something yesterday that made the pressure jump up. I'm not sure why, but the salt cel was clogged on the inlet side with debris. That shouldn't be because the water leaving the filter should be clean. My multiport might be leaking...will have to check that today. The pressure dropped down to 18psi on high and 8 on low. The water still looks great. Hopefully the lower pressure will stop the leaking. I know I am on borrowed time though, seeing that this is the filters 17th season.

    Thanks for your help.

    Did the leak stop with the lower pressure?
