Why is my pool valve leaking?
This damage is usually caused when a user moves the valve handle to a different position while the pump is running. When this gasket goes bad, it can cause leaking around the valve, or it can allow dirt to bypass the filter and return to the pool, signaled by perpetually cloudy water.
Why is my backwash hose leaking?
Sometimes you will see water leaking out where the valve shaft goes into the body of the valve. This indicates a bad shaft o-ring on the valve. If water keeps trickling into the backwash line, even 15 minutes after the valve has been put on filter, then there is probably a bad gasket or o-ring on the valve.
Should I filter or recirculate pool when shocking?
Recirculate allows the water to flow out of the pool and back into it again without running through the sand or diatomaceous earth in the filtration system. It’s best to run the pool filter for 6-8 hour before shock treatment, and to schedule the shock when the sun has set.
