Bsw71 Posted June 29, 2013 Report Posted June 29, 2013 I have a Hayward cartridge filter with four cartridges. The top closure plate (manifold) is broken in two places along the flat part around the part that fits inside the cartridge. It seems to still fit ok, but I've started having a problem with brown silt at the bottom of my pool and cloudy water. I've replaced the cartridges and used Pool First Aid, and ran the filter overnight. This seemed to clear things up for a day, but the cloudiness and bottom silt have returned. Chlorine and pH levels are normal. Is it likely that the problem is, in fact, that I just need to replace the top closure plate? I've ordered one just in case. I run my pump 8 hours a day, and am also wondering if it might help to run it 10 hours. Any tips are appreciated. Thanks! Quote
