    Thanks, Mark.

    Goose, given that the MAX flow -- for good filtration -- through a 24" filter, like the Tagelus 60, should be 45 GPM or less . . . it's safe to say that you are (1) wasting most of the pumping electricity you are consuming and (2) forcing the filter to fail. If you have 45 GPM on low, you shouldn't even turn the pump onto high, when you backwash.
