Our Hayward sand pump is 2 years old now and I have not performed a deep clean. Pool has been open about a month this year and I noticed increased pressures. Yesterday after a kids party the water turned a little cloudy and there was almost no water movement from the jet in the pool. I performed a quick backwash, waste, and rinse that wasn't effective.
I ran a second waste and backwash that brought the pressures down into the "green" zone.
I then reset the pump to run another 12 hours overnight.
Pressures are up again so I did another waste, backwash, rinse.
If the pressures rise again, is the next step to isolate the pump and perform a deep clean? I just watched those videos but they indicate it should be done at pool opening and I dropped the ball.
Thanks
