conversion

Great thanks again for the quick reply and all the help. I am going to start tonight. I do have 1 more question I have a 26' sand filter and to vacuum to waste sucks out 5 X more water that I can add. After the conversion I am going to have the sand changed or switch filters. Will it hurt to just backwash as normal???

Cannot answer the backwashing question, but you will have to change out your sand. No need for a new filter.

I knew about changing the sand but the Leslies by me recommended upgrading to a new DH filter for only $50.00 more than a sand change so I was thinking of doing that. If anybody does know about the backwash and vacuum questions please let me know. Thanks - Nervous but Excited
