I have a dedicated pressure side cleaning line in my pool that we don't use. Will it hurt anything if I open this line for additional circulation in the pool? It is placed between the pump and filter so my thought is that I will basically be circulating a portion of my water that has not been cleaned. Thoughts?
I don't see any benefit to circulating unfiltered water. Not sure why you'd want to do that.
Depending on your piping, it could greatly reduce flow through the filter, and THAT would be harmful.

Thanks for the reply. I'm having all kinds of issues with this pool. Can't seem to get my water right and I have a brand new Rainbow inline clorinator that doesn't seem to be holding water at all. So frustrating.
Rainbow 320? What sort of problem?
What do you mean, "you can't get your water right"?
It doesn't seem like I am getting enough flow through the chlorinator. It was set up in a bottom feed configuration and would fill partially with water but then the water would eventually drain from the chamber. I switched it to top feed but the same thing is happening. When I recharge it, I only have about an inch of water that stays in the chlorinator even though I have it turned all the way up. Brand new chlorinator just installed a week ago.
As far as the water in concerned, basically no FC even though I have put at least 12 pounds of granular chlorine in it, shocked multiple times, etc. Water is very cloudy but appears to be getting better. Brand new cartridge fikter....cleaning it every couple days. Water looks like it is clearing but very slowly and still not holding chlorine. Very little combined.
CYA is still ok but if I have to keep adding the breakout 35, it's gonna get high.
Should I use regular bleach instead for now?
