    So are you saying that I should only backwash when the pressure guage is +5 psi even if it's been weeks (or it never happens)?
    Thanks for the clarification though. I learn something every day here!

    Yep. That's what I'm saying.

    If you want to add DE to polish your water, you can probably force a backwash, after the really fine stuff is removed.
