Hey, I have an inground pool with a 4foot and 8foot deep sections. Not sure on measurements or how long the pool has been installed (we've lived here since '95). I also have a Hayward S2000 series filter system. Back in '06 the system ran fine. '07 and '08 we didn't uncover the pool and fix it up. This year, it doesn't seem to be filtering too well. It's not pulling through the skimmer basket on the 4foot section making vaccuming impossible. Is there anyway I can check for a break in the line or if someone has any suggestions on something else that could be wrong. Anything would be greatly appreciated.
