Ice exploded DE filter tank

I am so sorry! If you cannot replace the filter, I would think marine might be better as you are going to have some strong pressure in there. I don't know anything about gorilla glue. Good luck. Hopefully someone will have more ideas for you. Hope your health has improved.

You might be able to repair it since the PSI is probaly at 15-20, which is relatively low compared to your household at around 60 psi. If you were to repair it, it would be nice if you had a valve between the pump and filter to regulate the pressure in your filter. For instance, my filter typically runs at about 18-20 PSI, but I have installed a ball valve that drops that to anything I want, I typically keep it at 14 PSI making my sand filter more efficient. Lower pressure means less chance of blowing out your repair. I don't have any great advice on how to repair the cracks. I would think the best way is to patch the cracks on the inside with similar material and a strong bonding cement or epoxy of some kind, similar to patching a leak in your pool liner. If all else fails you could still runthe pump without the filter and still be able to keep your water in a "swimmable" state, knowing that dirt will collect on the bottom of the pool. Another option would be to look at a cheaper filter, like sand, not as good as DE but an option.
