I don't have one of those test kits yet. The chlorine was very purple still on my dip stick this morning. I'm going to take it to get tested later.

When I did turn the pump on today there was a big cloud of brown coming from my return jet. I backwashed and when I turned it back on I did not have that.

As far as the size of the pump/filter i have no idea.


I just took a bunch of pics so let me see if I can figure out how to put them on here.
