    Backwash and rinse!

    Hello, Yes, we are talking about the same thing. EVACUATION = WASTE LINE. We call it ‘evacuation’ here. And yes, I have a shut-off valve on the waste line, which means that I can close that line when I want. My question is, when I am doing the BACKWASH and the RINSE, should the waste line be...

    Backwash and rinse!

    Hello, How are you, people? I have a short, simple question. When I am doing the backwash and after, the rinse, the evacuation should stay open for both? As in, the evacuation tap must be ON while I backwash and while I rinse? Or it should be closed? Thank you.

    Is my pump Alright?

    I am not sure, but I think that it was water, if not full, in the pump basket, what I was able to see under the clear lid. But it didn’t cross my mind to look at it carefully, so I am not sure how much attention I put into it. Evaporation - I was away too long. This is the video -...

    Is my pump Alright?

    I was away on a trip and when I came back, the water level in my pool was low, right under the skimmer’s minimum mark. Exactly on the lower side of the mark. I have attached some photos (I have a video which shows better, but I cannot add it here - if it is alright, tell me and I will upload it...

    I am curious, too! Why don’t you drain all the water, clean the pool and fill it with fresh water? Why would you go through all this trouble?

    Shock and PH minus

    Granulatchlorine. But a straight answer would really help me. Is it first the chlorine and after the PH? Or viceversa?

    Shock and PH minus

    Hey!? Someone ... I will soon need to shock! So, first I add the PH minus and after the granulat chlorine shock?

    Shock and PH minus

    So you advise first the PH, wait 20 minutes, then the shock?

    Shock and PH minus

    Hello, From what I’ve seen around here, a shock will increase PH. Therefore, first the shock, then the PH minus. I use granulat for shock. How long should I wait until I can add the PH minus? I saw somewhere 15-20 minutes. What do you, people, advise?

    Flocculant! Never again!

    I appreciate your straight answer. And I make one single cicle backwash - rinse? Everywhere I look on the Internet I see one cicle at a time. The company that made my pool were saying to make several cicles on a single round.

    Flocculant! Never again!

    They also told me to keep evacuation closed when I perform a backwash, when it is on backwash and to open the evacuation only when I go with rinse. From what I see now, everywhere, the evacuation must be opened on both actions, backwash and rinse, correct?

    Flocculant! Never again!

    And 5.) ... when I backwash, once a week, if my filter is not ruined (what are the chances? how it worked for people that used deloc with filtering on?) should I do one single cycle of backwash + rinse, or more cicles at the same time? Like 5 x backwash + rinse? BTW -my filter is sand, an Emaux.

    Flocculant! Never again!

    Well, thank you for all the infos you people post here ... What can I tell you ... I have an in-ground pool, here in Eastern Europe. The people that build it, the company, told me to use on a weekly basis flocculant (with filtering system on), alongside antialgae, granulat chlorine and ph minus...
