    Sand in pool

    Thanks for the info. When we upgraded the pump I was unaware of the issues it could cause. Live and learn I guess. We are likely going to go with a pentair cartridge filter system and just be done with sand all together.

    Sand in pool

    Still have the sand problem after replacing sand and inspecting the laterals again. I do rinse well after backwash so it's likely not the problem. We did upgrade the pump to a 1hp from a 3/4 but I had this issue with the old pump as well. At this point I think I'm just gonna let it go and...

    Sand in pool

    I am getting pool sand in the pool. This also happened with the brand new equipment when I first purchased the pool. So the company sent me new laterals and multiport valve. I also went ahead and replaced the sand just to make sure I had the right grade and everything. Fast-forward a couple...

    Pump died

    So the pump that came with our setup died. Completely rusted out. We have only had it for 2 1/2 years. Anyway my husband found a 3/4 HP rigid well pump for super cheap the same day the pump went out. He replaced the broken one and now we have air in the system we cannot get out. Is it even...
