Hello - I can't figure out how to backwash my filter. It has a valve with a large handle that can be pressed and turned. There appears to be a pipe going into the ground for the "waste" option. There is a sight glass. I can't find a backwash hose or a waste valve - not sure what that is. Is this what I do?
1. turn off filter
2. turn valve to "backwash"
3. run for a minute
4. turn off filter
5. turn valve to "rinse"
6. turn off filter
7.turn valve to "filter"
8. Do I add DE?
I have a
1.5HP Hayward Super Pump
Hayward 4820 DE Filter,
Maybe there is a post or a link to website that shows me how to backwash?
Thanks,
David
