I have DE filter that does not take long to go from 13-15 psi to 20 and then beyond.
When I remove the filter, the screen on top is depressed and algae and DE have collected on top of it. Is this likely causing the rapid rise in pressure?
Instead of backwashing, should I just commit to removing the entire filter everyday for awhile and hosing it off?
Thanks in advance.
