Do you vacuum on filter or backwash?

Typically you only need to backwash when your filter's PSI is double its starting PSI level. For example, mine starting PSI is between 7 and 12, so when it gets to between 15 and 20 PSI I'll backwash.

What is the difference between the waste rinse and backwash functions on the Haywood DE filter tank and skimmer in terms of how the water flows?

The purpose of the backwash function is just to flush out the filter itself when you see the pressure gauge reading 8-10 lbs higher than the just-cleaned reading. The waste rinse function bypasses the filter and is used to vaccuum debris from the pool straight out into the yard. Use it when the debris is too fine for the filter to remove such as with dead algae.


I accidentally vacuumed dirt in my pool using backwash mode instead of waste mode. How do I get the dirt out from under the sand?

There wont be any dirt under the sand. When you vacuum your pool you should do it on filter mode Otherwise you will lose a lot of water for nothing, this would be especially wasteful in the case of a salt water pool. Ofter having vacuumed the pool on filter mode and if the pressure gets too high backwash. after backwash rinse for a minute, then return to filter.

What are each of these settings for on the filter- filter backwash recirc waste closed and rinse?

Filter setting intakes pool water through the skimmer, sends it through the filter (then heater, if any) and back into the pool. Backwash sends pool water through the filter in reverse and dumps the water out for cleaning purposes. In my experience if pool servicing is overdue you may need to backwash several times, running the filter setting a minute or two (without adding DE) in between each backwash. The filter is not really clean until the water runs clear. Recirculate is a round robin water voyage from skimmer to return port bypassing the filter if the pool is piped for this feature. Waste dumps water from the skimmer without going through the filter. Closed prevents water from entering the filter tank and should not be used with the pump running. It is for winterizing and servicing only. Some pools are piped so that the closed setting is used when vacumming the pool (with pump running). Most pools are piped so that the closing off of water from the filter is accomplished by turning a valve on one of the water lines. Rinse: Runs water through the filter in the normal direction and out the waste hose. This helps the sand to compact back down or the DE to settle back into the mesh before you start cycling back into the pool.
