Can You Say, "Diatomaceous Earth"? - I Thought Not

...But you might say, "!#@* DE!", if you found the bottom of your swimming pool having the appearance of a rippled sandy beach.

That's what happens when one of your DE (diatomaceous earth) pool filter elements allows DE to reenter circulation and into the pool itself. It's surprising what a small 1" tear (top photo) in the element fabric can do to your day - messy, messy =:o)

New element in place, we're back up and running.

Now, if only the water was warmer!........
