There should be a handle you turn to the backwash postion. Push down on the handle and turn it to the right notch, let it flow a minute or so, and return it to regular filtering.
Do you have a sand or DE (diatomaceous earth - white powder) filter? Either way, the process is the same, but you may want to recharge the DE a little if you backwash it hard.
If you can find a make # model, i'll be able to explain it a lot better.
Are you using chlorine or a substitute stuff?
Do you see anyone else named? That was my point. If early church fathers had wanted to blame the Jews, they could have said the Jews.
This is the worst?
On the evening of that first day of the week, when the disciples were together, with the doors locked for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said, "Peace be with you!" After he said this, he showed them his hands and side. The disciples were overjoyed when they saw the Lord. John 20:19-20
Jesus was Jewish. Jesus' disciples were Jewish. Jesus' followers were Jewish. They weren't antisemitic. But after having their Lord crucified, and being concerned about suffering the same fate because of their association with Him, they were afraid. Is that so hard to understand?
I hate it when that happens!
Pass the beer!
LMAO!!!
I thought you were bringing it. OK, where'd the beer money go?
Exactly.
You're being baited by a newbie who just wants a stick to beat a Christian with...that's what all this Mel stuff has been the past few days, anyway. Boy, have my loyalties been misplaced. To think, how they really felt!--and all it took to find out the truth was a little tequila. You shall know the truth, and the truth shall inform your political opinions.
You mean you drank what I brought already.....
It's a sand filter, we think since we found a bag of it in the garage. The farthest we have gotten is checking the ph and chlorine and we did put in the chlorine tablets last night. Ph seemed pretty good. Tonight we are going to add shock and algaecide. However, we don't even know what valve is the backwash valve?
We need a crash course bad.
Moose will steal your cheese and bite my sister.
Oh, and rain falls down.
LMFAO!
Does it look like a fat tan colored R2D2? Is there a handle on the top?
It is just that simple, and it amazes me that people have to fight about such silliness.
It is not difficult....
I know who has $11.84 of it......
yes
But,will the sun rise in the east tomorrow?
Also, there are like 3 or 4 beige colored pipes with valve shut offs. Those need to be replaced because a couple are broken, but will still turn with a wrench. However, we have no idea what they are for.
