i was bumping my de filter because the pressure had gone up and the flow didnt seem as strong as usual.

well the part that holds the handle in place just broke. there are two of them on the lid but the other one looks like it was broken a long time ago.

now i cant bump the filter. i was looking at a replacement for the filter cover but they are about 150 bucks......

is there a workaround anyone can think of to be able to bump the de to keep the pressure down without having to backwash the de and add more everytime the pressure goes up. (i just added 6 lbs yesterday and dont want to waste it all)
