The other day the pool at work broke a pipe in one of the sand filters. This aloud the filter sand to go into the pool.
lucky I spotted this and only about 50 KGs of sand got into the pool before I stopped the pump.
I had to remove the sand from the pool by hand and then remove the remaining 400 KGs of sand from the filter so I could fix the broken pipe.
It took me a day to remove all the sand from the broken filter by hand. I removed all the sand fixed the pipe put the sand back into the filter started up all the pumps, 4 in total went home round 7pm Wednesday night looking forward to the stat holiday Thursday, all was great.
Thursday morning went into work just to check on the pool and FUADH@LJLJK me days another pump had done the same thing only this time it had dumped over half its FN sand into the pool OMG!!
I hate pools now. :'( :'( :'(

I want a pool at work.

That's why I have a cartridge filter in my pool.
Well it's not, that's because the previous owners of my house installed the pool but what ever.

I got rid of my D.E filter cos they are a pain. Never used a cartridge filter but I honestly reckon the sand filters are mostly bulletproof.
I've never had a pipe break, maybe just a run of (extremely) bad luck, faulty parts or a maintenance issue Dumpy?

Just leave the sand in the pool IMO, say you are going for the beach feel

That's a big ass pool.

The pool was put in about 30 years ago and there has not been a lot of maintenance done in that time.
Just think it was old age.
