Hi Folks!

I have been in lurk mode but out of the shadows to seek your advise..

With the recent fires in our area, there is a lot of ash which was carried by winds into the pool. My filters are choked to the level that flow was not enough for the SWG to function. After trying to clean one unsuccessfully With a strong water jet (it is a tedious water wasting task), I have ordered a replacement set.

There is also a lot of ash still in the pool and the poor robot has been trying its best. But the ash is stubborn I am guessing due to the pebble finish, to the extent that in places, it doesn't budge even with brushing!

Any advice on how to get the ash cleaned out and if I can save the filters somehow?

Any Advice would be appreciated.

TIA!
