Hello, all.
Brand spanking new Pentair Quad DE 80 (8lbs of DE). Rated at 160 gpm.
Intelliflo VF pumping 24gpm.
1 drain, 2 skims, 3 returns. All 2" plumbing. Heater and SWG are not plumbed in yet.
Pressure gauge bumped up to not even 5psi during prime, then settled back down to zero at steady state. I'm thinking (hoping) that it's because of the low flow through the big filter. But I gotta ask...is this ok?
