Is there anything you did or changed that may be related to the incident?
Best for now.

I've heard that you don't need to backwash your sand filter until you raise the pressure 5 PSI, is that correct? I just installed a new gauge, and I've been a week without backwashing, and it's only risen 1psi. Let me know what you think! Also, anyone know of a website with decent prices on replacement pump motors?
