I have an inground pool with a Century Centurion (Cat B2854) pump with a Triron II tr60 filter. Pool also has a pool heater it runs through as well. I have noticed that the pressure on the filter has dropeed to an almost unnoticable amount and continues to build air that has to be bleed very frequently. I have also noticed a few minor leaks at fittings which is probably the problem with the air getting into the system. While in backflow the pump seems to push water just fine but while in “filter” mode it does not function properly, meaning it doesn’t have enough draw for the pool vaccuum to work effectivley. I replaced all the sand in the filter last spring, which had calcified, in hopes that this would improve filter quality with no luck.
At this point I am ready to replace all the plumbing above ground as well as the pump to try and fix the issue. Is this a good idea or should I have someone come out and assess the problem
