Good evening guys,
The info I read could be wrong so bear with me. From what I read on the net, Cartridge Filters do not get backwashed but Sand Filters do? If that is true, then I would like to change out my sand filter for a cartridge filter. The reason being, It is extremely difficult to backwash my sand filter. I have no place in the back yard to do it. We live against a lake and it will flow into the lake. I don't want to jeopardize the fish or anything. It is also very tough to run the hose to the sewer clean out which is recommended here in this neighborhood.
So basically, this is just to make things easier. The current filter works great. From what I understand, it is a very good filter. Below are the pics of what I currently have. I would like to replace the pump also. I would like to have the best of the best but unfortunately I don't currently have the budget for the best. I definitely don't want to step down though. Something comparable to what I have now would be great. I appreciate your help.
Well................for some reason it won't let me post the pics....says I'm over a quota???? Anyways, the filter is a Hayward Pro Series S360SX and the Pump is a Hayward Super II Pump K48M2N110 1 1/2 HP.
