After wasting some water from our above ground pool due to ALOT of rain, when I switched from waste to filter, a big puff of cloudy dirty water went into pool from return jet.
Did I need to do something different?
Thanks

Do you have a DE filter ?
No, it's sand. I'm not real sure of the size........

If you have a "rinse" setting on your pump, switch it to rinse after backwashing or running water to waste to rinse any extra "gunk" that's accumulated in the pipes out the waste pipe. If you'll let it run at "rinse" for 20-30 seconds, then when you go back to "filter" you shouldn't get the dirty water cloud.

I had this happen when I didn't did a quick backwash and didn't go to rinse before switching to filter. Maybe run it on rinse first to clear the crud.
Thanks for all the help.......
