Cleaning The Strainer - Bestway 58497 Manuel Du Propriétaire

Sand Filter Maintenance
CAUTION: You must ensure the sand
filter is switched off and unplugged
before any maintenance begins or
severe risk of injury or death exists. As
dirt builds up in the sand filter, the
pressure reading on Pressure Gauge
will increase. When the Pressure
Gauge is 0.45 Bar (6.5 PSI) or higher, or water flow to the
pool is too low, it is time to clean the sand. To clean the sand
bed, follow all instructions outlined previously in: Backwash
and Rinsing.
NOTE: Pressure gauge is for maintenance purpose only,
and the pressure gauge value is just for reference, it should
not be used as a precision instrument.
NOTE: We recommend you clean the sand bed once a
month or less regularly depending on how often the pool is
used. Do not clean the sand too frequently.
