2 speed pump low setting and pressure?

[ScottS]

I recenty set up my 19" Waterway sand filter and piped it with 1.5" PVC. I've got it mated with a 1hp 2 speed pump and on low my pressure is about 2psi. The flow is good and the water is clearer than ever.

I do have an issue with the multiport valve seating correctly on the filter though. The valve does not seat correctly and will not allow me to tighten the threaded collar all the way. So on high speed the valve pops up some and water comes out between the valve assemble and the tank.

Very glad to hear that scott. I have not got the pump wiring fixed yet so I do not have high speed to compare to. I assume I am running in low speed or else I would have a power issue.
