Happy Start of Pool Season! I just uncovered my pool recently and am trying to get the gunk cleaned out. I have recently learned that it is possible to add DE to a sand filter. My sand filter is only 12" which works great for my 14' pool. I really want to add DE, but with my filter being so much smaller than most i don't want to add too much or too little! I read the instructional post on here and while most people start with 1/4 cup I'm thinking maybe i should start with 1/8th ? Also my pressure gauge is different than most and is only numbered from 0-4 PSI, so i don't know if i want the pressure in my filter to rise a whole 1 PSI - seems like alot for my filter. my gut says maybe it should only go up .5 PSI.
Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks in advance
