*Dry DE powder is unsafe to inhale and hurts like hell when it gets in your eyes. Please heed all warnings when working with dry DE*

For those of you with DE or Diatomacious Earth filters, here is your instruction manual on what to do every fall and spring. Backwashing just isn't enough to keep your filter working in tip top shape. It needs to be disassembled, cleaned and inspected for worn or damaged components.

Failure to do the proper maintenance will lead to a whole host issues including low circulation and lingering algae issues. If you're unfamiliar with the backwashing procedure, check out my video on the subject here:
