Morning all, I have a 15' 48" high Intex pool with an Intex Sand Filter Pump 10". I usually take my pool down in the winter so I add a little corn starch so it doesn't get moldy. What has happened now is that I can't get it out of the pool, it currently just passes right through and I see cloudy water coming out of the jet.
I read many posts and pool school about adding DE to the filter in hopes of clearing this up at 1/4 cup increments but have a few questions:
1) My PSI gauge is normally on the border between the green/yellow, so by adding the DE it will increase slightly, correct?
2) If the pressure does get too high, to lower it, i would assume the Backwash and Rinse will remove or upset the DE?
Any other advice or recommendations...
THANK YOU!!!
