Ok, tough title...
I had an issue with my setup and my pump/filter supplying enough "back pressure" to allow my heat pump to run on low. The PB basically said he adjusted as low as possible, I finally put the smallest return jets on the three returns and I got enough "back pressure" to run my pump on low.
Now I am sick of screwing with the problems with my sand filter....it simply does not filter anything. Everything just blows through....they've swapped and tried everything, and still no filtering. My robot saves me and keep the pool clean.
But I still get a ton of junk floating....so I want to switch to a new filter, DE or Cartridge...but I am concerned about losing the ability to run my HP with my pump on low. Is there anyway to know or predict what various filters will do to my pressure.
Hopefully this makes sense....
