Hey guys, quick question. A couple of times now, whenever I've unplugged my AC20, it didn't turn on when I plugged it back in. The impeller just wouldn't turn. I had to take the actual pump off of the AC20, rinse it some, then it would work.
Today it apparently just turned off period. I guess it stopped in the middle of the day. I came home and mom said she couldn't hear the filter, so I went to look at it, and it obviously wasn't running. I couldn't hear it running at all. The pump was HOT. I was scared that it was broken. I rinsed it and it worked again, but there wasn't THAT much stuff in it. What's going on? Tomorrow morning I'm going to buy another filter just in case. I'm also going to let the new filter seed, then soak the old one in vinegar to clean it out. Any ideas? Is it just dirty?
Anyone ever tried a marina slim filter? I've read good things (well, one good thing), but I wanted to ask you guys. I know ACs are the best yada yada yada, but I don't feel like cutting my hood again, so I need a slim filter.
