Slowly pour in the required amount of sand per your filter’s manual.
Perform a backwash and rinse cycle before switching to the filter setting.
Pro Tip
Always cover the standpipe in the center of the tank with tape or a cap before pouring sand to prevent any grains from entering your pool return lines.
Always follow label directions. Test and balance water chemistry before and after treatment. Keep chemicals stored sealed, cool, and dry.
