I appreciated the detailed step by step process. In fact I thought i had a Hayward DE4820 then I saw your video and said mine looks like that one. LOL. already ordered the replacement grids from AMZN because when I opened filter today with a friend... saw that several of the plastic grids were broken at the bottom of the filter. Best to you and this channel. Ty for taking the time and identifying the filter model you worked on. It verified everything that I was told to do.
Glad it helped! I'm not sure why some people backwash either. From what I've been taught, backwashing is really hard on the filter grids, so I just never do it.
The most important thing is to show how to put it together. As a pool professional I am. If you wish I can show you. The filter was disassembled inappropriately. AMONG OTHER MISTAKES
I was pretty intimidated my first time cuz it's a bunch of weird, unfamiliar parts, but realistically you should set aside about an hour on your first try. Once you get used to it it'll only take you about 30 minutes. Good luck and thanks for watching!
It's different for every pool, but this one needs to be cleaned every six months. Keep an eye on the pressure gauge, when it gets up in the 20 PSI range it's time to clean it.
Thank you
Got stuck putting the grids back in the filter. Your video saved me.
Terrific! Glad it helped!!
Perfect how-to! Now I'm going to tackle my DE 6020 filter cleaning! Thanks!
Good luck! Let me know how it goes.

Thanks for the feedback! Glad you appreciated the video, I hope it helped.
Doing a backwash before you start helps cut down on the mess.
Thanks for the tip
Great video. Thx! I note that some people backwash after 3-4 QTs. Not sure why.

@@Medero1959 thanks for commenting!
You made that look easy. How much time, realistically, should I set aside to complete this for my first time?

Do you ever have complications on securing the filter band clamp? Mainly on the Jandy filters. Spent 3 hours trying to secure the clamp and the bolt.
@erickrhernandez1451 I've never had those troubles myself. Maybe someone else in the messages can help?
How often do you clean the filter
It's different for every pool, but this one needs to be cleaned every six months. Keep an eye on the pressure gauge, when it gets up in the 20 PSI range it's time to clean it.
