VALVE OPERATIONS Make yourself familiar with your filter system’s valve settings and functions. Filter Valve Settings & Functions Setting Complete Water Flow/Function Filtration Vacuum, regular pool filter action. This is the setting the filter will be set to most of the time. In this position, water is directed through the top of the filter where it compresses and flattens the sand.
FILTER OPERATIONS Start Up Once the filter system has been properly assembled, the sand chamber filled with sand and the hoses connected, you may begin with filtration. However, we recommend that you clean and prepare the new sand that is in the sand chamber first. Cleaning the sand prior to filtering your pool will remove most of the dust and tiny sand particles that may exist in the sand.
