    Carl, agreed that it is usually unnecessary to change your filter sand. But........ his filter has Quik-rete sand in it and that is one that has been found to not be a good one. So, he probably is doing a good thing by changing it out in this case.

    So...it IS broke!

    Still, if DE will keep it working, well, it's a cheap fix.
