I'm about at my wit’s end with this constant filter pressure increase. Following the massive chemical treatment I just did - after which I thought I had resolved the short cycle / constant pressure increase problem - it appears that I’m right back where I started. I can’t keep going with having to worry about and change the filter every 3-4 days. I’ll probably try chlorine next, since most people here tell me they hardly ever have to even change their DE with using chlorine - so maybe all this is a baquacil issue - but if not, and things continue in the same way, I will plan on giving up on all this - don't really know what else to do. Quite honestly, while I love swimming dearly, I'm really starting to get tired of all the work. IF chlorine WILL make things easier AND resolve this filter issue, fine. I'll continue.
To get rid of the pool, what would need to be done other than permanently draining it? Must the shell be broken up and removed? Or just fill in with ground and done? Probably major work, but I'd want the deck and fence taken out as well and the whole area just reseeded back into grass. This is the most depressing swimming season I've ever had and right now I'm just feeling like wanting to walk away from the whole thing.
