I'm so glad the video was helpful. Please let me know if you have any questions on a pool subject. Chances are I've done a video on it and can give you a link to it so you don't have to "search" through a bunch of stuff to get help. And please subscribe so you can keep up to date on my videos as they come out. LASTLY, a word of encouragement: Basic pool service and maintenance is not rocket science (if it was I certainly couldn't do it) so take your time and you will be fine. Then, if you have a major pool issue you'll have the money to hire a licensed, insured and bonded pool repair person to take care of that issue for you. Hang in there

Thank you so much for this video. Today was the day I cleaned my filter cartridges. Interestingly I had 3 different cartridges and only 2 alike. I recently let my pool guy go for a no show 2 weekends in a row. Not cool. I’m not sure he even did my filters in March like he said he was....they were definitely in need of some love. I’ve never been able to maintain my pool on my own, but thanks to your videos I have the confidence to get the job done. As a widow, this is a big deal for me to have done.....I’ve been proud all day, so thank you so very much. I started to panic a little once I saw I had the nut, washer and spring closure for the belly belt....and it was getting hot out already. I had to text a friend to see if the horrible squeak I was hearing was actually okay....turns out it was I will definitely be watching all the wisdom you share with us

If your pressure gauge is hard to read due to oxidation on the plastic lens as in this video, you can use a car headlight restoration kit to remove the oxidation and apply the UV protectant in these kits to the lens.

@@PoolSchooler I think I did - if not I will :) Here is an issue we are currently facing, and would appreciate your feedback. We soaked the cartridge filters in laundry detergent 1:5 and rinsed well (something we should probably have not done but it was recommended and so we tried it in order to clean the algae slimes and grease from the filter pleats) - So it looks like we did not rinse the filters well enough because we now have foamy spa/ pool. Lots of foam! We spent hours skimming the foams - no more mountains of foam but we still have light foam, especially when the spa or the water features are on. What should we do more? How do we get rid foams? Where we live, Algae is one of the main problems with pools due to the high temperatures. Although we use lots of pool chemicals to keep up with the heat and to slow down the constant growing algae, the filters get clogged easily ( the dirt and debris we get from the constant high wind does not help) - Our filters are only 1 year old and we have so far cleaned them 2x . Thank you for reading and any suggestion/feedback you can provide is much appreciated!

@@Astuu1 Unfortunately the foam is from the soap you used. And that soap will remain in the pool. And I think the only way to take care of that would be to change the water (wait til after summer though). Also, NEVER USE DETERGENT OR SOAP to clean your cartridges.

Make sure your o ring is clean and well lubricated and make sure there’s no cracks or breaks in the O-ring.

I've only watched 2 videos and have learned so much! Thank you!! I have a question - I have watched and read other pool people saying to soak or spray to wash the cartridge (after you've sprayed it clean with the hose). I noticed you didn't. Is it necessary or just another unnecessary thing to buy? Thanks so much!

Not necessary.

There is a filter cleaner that in the past I soaked them in, but then you got to rinse them thoroughly. It is a longer process.

@@dvdmrrs2 I'm familiar with such products and believe they are not necessary. ALSO because they "dissolve" the dirt and build up on on the cartridges there is a very good possibility that they can also speed up the the deterioration of the cartridge fabric themselves, thus shortening their life as well. I've seen some that have used a "solution" and it has more rapidly made the cartridge fabric "pulpy" and far less permeable.

Another way to know what is UP. The printing on the straps around the filter.

Great point. thanks for commenting. Sometimes the bands are broken up and it's hard to read. Also some of the cartridges do have a "Up" on one end of the cartridge to help as well. 👍

What do you do if after you remove the cartridges the water doesn’t drain out of the tank?
@PoolSchooler4 жыл бұрын
kimberj78az you have to remove the drain plug. If you’ve done that and it’s still not draining. Then something’s clogging that opening and you’ll have to clear it out.

is there some paint or solution we can coat it with after the fiberglass has been exposed?
@PoolSchooler3 жыл бұрын
I can’t be too certain but my guess is… Yes… I would suggest contacting a company in your area that specializes in fiberglass pool and see what the ramifications are and how it can be done.

Thanks for the Vid! I just got a C3030 filter and have to clean it out for the first time. Do you recommend soaking the cartridges in muriatic acid or any other filter cleaner to get them extra clean?
@PoolSchooler2 жыл бұрын
No. I do not recommend that. If you watched my video, what I do with cartridge filters in in this video is exactly what I do with all of my cartridge filters. Think about it this way, if you so cartridges in muriatic acid that muriatic acid not only dissolves dirt and sediment, but it’s also dissolving part of the fabric and the cartridges. It’s not necessarily a bad thing but it will at the very least dramatically decrease the life of those cartridges. So personally I would say do it the way I show in the video and don’t do a bunch of other stuff and add a bunch of other chemicals into the mix. My philosophy is keep it simple and keep any chemicals to a minimum.

Can a clogged & crushed screen cap cause the pressure to read high? I cleaned my filter again a week later and the only thing that was dirty was the screen cap that sits on top of the pipe.

Plus I replaced the gauge very recently

Typically, that shouldn’t be enough to raise the pressure.

Hello pool school! I have one question about the basket that is pretty much right next to the filter. When and how should I clean that? I think it’s blue and says “don’t remove under pressure.”

That's your pump basket. This video will tell you how to safely and properly empty it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qXnJeZmdpaqYqtE
