Okay, I've had my sand filter for about a month or so, and overall I love it. There are a few leaks, but only when I backwash, so in my mind it's not a big deal.
My question is, what is normal psi? My filter generally runs at 1 or 2 psi when the filter is clean, and I backwash when it gets to 3 or 4. It's supposed to hold 50 lbs of sand, but we could only get about 30 lbs in there. Do we need to add more sand? Get a new gauge? Stop worrying and have an adult beverage?
Could my water really be that clean?
