I apologize if there is a thread on this already - new to TFP and I did try to find something that answers the following:
Do I need to backwash after every time I vacuum my above ground 15x30 oval pool?
Context -- I am asking because our backyard faces some trees and we probably get more debris than other pools in the area. So I find that I'd like to just clean the pool bottom quickly twice weekly, maybe three at most -- but in my head I'm thinking to backwash every time seems a bit much? Could I backwash once a week after I've vacuumed three times? I'm not picking up tons and tons of debris each session - but just keeping the bottom nice and clean.
Thoughts?
