  If you notice sand flowing into your pool from the MARIMEX Swimming Pool Filter, several factors could be at play. Firstly, the sand might be too fine; it's recommended to use #20 silica sand with a size of 0.45 mm to 0.85 mm. Secondly, ensure you stop the sand filter each time you adjust the control valve. Also, verify that the sand level is within the “MAX” and “MIN” markings on the collector hub. Lastly, a broken skimmer can cause this issue, so consider replacing it.

  Excessive pressure in your MARIMEX Swimming Pool Filter can stem from several causes. The filter might be dirty, necessitating a backwash. A calcified sand bed can also lead to this issue, so inspect the sand and replace it if needed. Insufficient backwashing is another potential cause; backwash until the water runs clear. Lastly, a broken pressure gauge can give a false reading, so consider replacing it.

  If your MARIMEX Swimming Pool Filter has no water flow, several things could be the reason. Check that the stopper plugs have been removed and the debris screens are inserted. Make sure any trapped air has been released from the system. Verify that the control valve is set to the filter function, not closed. Finally, inspect the strainer for blockages and clean it if necessary. If none of these steps resolve the issue, further assistance may be needed.
