Do not hijack. It is confusing when two people are asking the same question in one thread. I have started you a new one.
I have a new setup and had a TON of very fine dirt from 6 months of my pool sitting with no filter. Manually got all the big stuff, but when I vacuumed for the first time, I could physically see the dirt coming back through the returns.
My pressure started at 10 and this was happening at 13 or so...
Following TPS rules, it was time to backwash, but by then most of the heavy dirt was already vacuumed. My PB says I was overloading the filter and it could not keep up, I just don't get that...
Any ideas ?
