Hi Sherrie;

Watermom is right -- we really can't tell much without knowing more about your pump and filter. The marketing games with those are so deceitful, we have a REALLY hard time figuring out what's going on.

Is your filter like either of these?


If you can get exact make and model numbers, it would help. It may be, you have a tiny filter with a tiny pump . . . and a deceptive label -- that's not good, but at least the pump won't blow the dirt through the filter. But, if you have a REAL 1 HP pump, with a 50# filter, it's going to take some hardware corrections to get your pool clear.
