Hello,
New pool owner here opening my first pool ever. Got all the chemicals right and ready to jump in but water is still cloudy and my de filter isn't working as it should. Need some help!
So after I wash down de filter with a hose, do a backwash and replace de the water flow through the jets is great and I get a good whirlpool in the skimmer. BUT....after only a few hours there is very little water flow through the jets and very little pressure in the skimmer so my pool is filtering and moving water as it should.
Everytime I take the filter out and clean it everything works great again for a few hours and then it all goes to hell again. I know its probably something simple i'm missing. Before I pay some pool service company $200 for a 15 minute job was hoping someone here can help!
