Re: How often do you backwash a sand filter?
Good to know, thanks! We have some warm weather coming up (for us anyway, mid 70's, lol) so we will run the filter/pump so we can heat our pool back up. We typically drop it down to mid 70's when we aren't swimming and a few days prior we turn up the degrees to heat the pool. From now on we will run it daily for 10 hrs or so and then turn it off.

10 hours per day should be just fine.

I have a two-speed pump and I run it on low for 12 hours a day. On high, less, but I rarely use high speed.
