Hello, we are just putting up our first pool. 18x48 bestway brand, and the pump came with it. The pump is Bestway sand filter model #58498E. It came with pool filter balls- and after researching for two days I have no idea if those are a goof option? If they are, how often do I wash them in the washer and so I backwash still? I am still learning about the pump in general and what needs done but I hope someone here will be kind enough to help me. ❤️
 
Welcome to the forum!
TFP says you have a sand filter, and thus sand should be used as the filter media. Since you have what you have, try them out. Hopefully someone will come along that has used them before.
I suggest you read through Pool Care Basics - Trouble Free Pool and even look at a few of our videos TFP-TV - Trouble Free Pool
