I was trying to find out how the Quad 100 DE compares to the FNS Plus 72 (both Pentair filters)
I can see that many people here have selected the Quad 100 for their pool build - probably impressed with the large filter area like I am/was. I have, however, not seen many comments on how it actually works. I have heard it doesn't backwash very well which I can accept (my thought was to take out the DE cartridges 1-2 times a year and rinse it all off)
The PB speaks more highly of the FNS Plus but will put in whatever I specify.
A noticed that geekgranny here often washes her Quad 80 but it sounds like she has extreme conditions.
Any people who have had Quad 80/100 for a few years that can share their experience? Likewise for the FNS Plus?
Do you normally soak the filters or just rinse them off with a garden hose?
