Hi,
I just purchased a therminator and am loving how fast it cools down my wort. I am using a pump to move it from the boil kettle to the chiller. However, I am loosing 1 gallon or more in the bottom of the boil kettle, the pump just stops with about a gallon left. This is a considerable amount more than I lost with my other wort chiller. The only thing I can think of is that this chiller is sucking the wort through a lot faster and clogging my hop filter. any reccomendations? Thanks a lot!!

Is there maybe a break in the inside connection that causes you to lose your vaccuum?
