I have a new gunite pool that was plastered and filled last Sunday (4/21). My equipment is as follows:
Pentair Intelliflo3 VFS (1.5HP)
Pentair FNS plus DE filter (36sqft)
Pentair Mastertemp 400
5 returns + 2 skimmers
As of today, with the pump running at 100% speed, my flow rate is 13 GPM. My pool builder is not taking this seriously so I am looking for some input…
I do not have a heater bypass, but would this really affect the flow rate so drastically? Is it more likely this is a filter or pump issue? The filter is currently reading 24 PSI.
Thanks in advance!
