Hello. We have a pressurized filter system for our pond which requires backwashing periodically. We do this on a regular basis, following the instructions. The backwash water is usally dirty, then clears up before going to the rinse procedure, and the rinse water is typically a lot clearer.
However, recently the pressure got high in the filter, and after finally finding out that the screen inside the filter box was dirty and clogged the pressure went down.
Ever since then the backwash has been clean and the rinse water very dirty.
So, I understand how the backwash works but eventually shouldn't the rinse water clear up? Did I do something to cause this?
