Ask Your Pool Question?

Why is Diatomaceous Earth Coming out of the Main Drain of my Swimming Pool when the System Shuts Off?

Question?

Q: Hello folks. One for your record. There is Diatomaceous Earth coming out of the main drain of my swimming pool when the system shuts off. Why is this happening? Ok, there is our specific topic.

Ok, thank you so much. Forever yours.

Answer!

A: Greetings, we can tackle that one. Here we begin. There is not enough information for us to respond accurately. What kind of Diatomaceous Earth filter do you have, a tank or a cartridge? Are you sure, it is a main drain and not a floor return that the DE is coming out of? Do you have a Spa? Well now, worth a try. Back to you.

Ok folks, our pleasure to do what we can. Time for a brew.

Regards, Alberto ("Your Cape Coral Pool Cleaning Professional")
