Since my pool opened up with a sandfilter that is shooting sand into the pool from one or more broken laterals (intex sending me 6 new ones under warranty) I am wondering if that was caused from it freezing over the winter and if there is anything I could have done differently to prevent it? I unhooked all the pipes from the pool, capped the inlet and outlets, blew out the water from the pipes with an air compressor, drained the pump, closed the valve on the sandfilter. made sure there was no water in the cross pipe to the sandfilter.
