I have a very old 48 sqft American Products/Pentair DE filter. There seem to be no air relief parts inside, just a hole in the lid for the pressure gauge, and a petcock installed between the lid and gauge to let air out.
Is this good enough?
Why do new filters have hoses from the manifold to the ceiling of the lid?
Am I right in assuming that only the dirty side of the filter needs air relief?
I'm getting DE/debris back in the pool, trying to figure out why and realized I don't understand the air relief...
