I'm sorry, I'm sure this question has been answered on the forum but since it will not let me search, I will have to ask. Or, let me amend, it will let me search but when I try to click on the search results it will not let me see the posts. It says I don't have priveleges.

So, I just bought a Quick Set pool, the kind with the ring that inflates. It is 14'x 42''. I'm using the filter that came with it. I'm not sure what it would be called but it just uses size A filters.

What is backwashing and can I do that with this type of filter? Is this something I need to worry about?
