I've been TFP'ing my pool for a few years now, and generally have to clean out my filter 4-5 times a year on average
Two weeks ago I cleaned it out, and, as usual, the pressure reset to more than 10psi (or whatever the unit of measurement is) lower than before the cleaning.
However, yesterday, I noticed the pressure spiked up to about 5 higher than the "clean" reading. And today, it's more than 10 higher than the clean reading.
Obviously, I've got to open it up and clean it. But what could make it rise so crazy fast? Any advice/thoughts/things to look for?
(FWIW, two weeks ago when I cleaned it out, it also had a slightly unusually quick rise in a matter of a few days, however, it had been a few months since the previous clean, so I didn't think too much of it.)
