Intex sand filter sand escaping

I have a 16inch Intex sand filter that is a year old. I just added a vacuum on the return that comes with a small prefilter cone. I noticed it keeps getting clogged with sand particles after a day or two of use. It doesn’t take much to clog this filter.

Before I go about tearing apart the entire sand filter to look at laterals is some sand escaping normal?

I am using aqua quartz sand from Leslie pool and it was used for 3-4 months last year and deep cleaned this year.
