Re: DE flowing in pool when precoating!
One thing I do know is that when I backwash, there is a bit of "dirty" DE that comes out of the drain in the pool. I have since installed a valve in the return line and I shut that off so the "dirty" DE doesn't go back into the pool.
Also, when the valve is in the filter position, there is a little water that goes out the backwash line. I also put a valve there so the water doesn't go to waste.
I guess when I put all of these things together it points to the multi-port valve. I could have a torn grid since I do get some "junk" in my polaris line filter. I have to clean that out every couple of weeks. It is filled with small pieces of live oak tree droppings and minute pieces of other decayed material.
I have a Hayward SP-715XR50 multi-port on my DE filter. I am looking at the instruction sheet that came with it and I can't seem to see a spider gasket. I see a valve seat gasket. Is that the same thing? I have also googled repacement parts for this and I can only find the entire handle, pin assembly without any gaskets, o-rings, etc.
