Why does the pressure on your sand filter go up when on filter and volume gets lower and when on recirculate pressure goes down and volume goes up?

Because When the filter is on the water is being pushed through the sand, this brings about a buildup of water pressure in front of the filter and a reduction of water able to get through to the returns. If the filter gets dirty the pressure gets even higher. When the system is set on recirculate the water bypasses the filter so there is no pressure in front of it and as a result of this it is able to move through the system more easily.

If you have a sand filter as your filter you may need to remove some of the sand from time to time, But most will be dunped during backwashing. If you have a cartridge filter you may have to clean it more often. If you use D.E. the sand will be dunped when you backwash,Other then that there is no harm.
