We started with a very large sand filter. Swapped the media out to mixed micro media. Neither were able to keep our pool clean or clear. A few years back we bought a Hayward DE filter (EC50). The first brand of DE was a bit of work. Pressure kept rising, had to keep backwashing, and recharging. Even when the pool was clean. That stuff would just cake up and not perform as it was supposed to. I grabbed this Dicalite DE, what a difference this stuff makes. Instead of 25 pounds in a few months (that other stuff), I'm using 25 pounds in 2 years. That includes opening and season long maintenance (12 1/2 pounds per season). This stuff is so good, this is my 2nd order of Dicalite DE. Now I won't use anything but!
Two times a year replace your filter medium and I chose this one. Won’t know how good it is for 6 months. So how can I possibly give it a rating. Sometimes this becomes a real effort to write and you insist on a rating.
