For most effective results, remove lid from lint pot and pour 1 quart of SoftSwim Filter Cleaner into the pot (if this is not possible, pour the product into the skimmer closest to the filter) With the filter in backwash position, turn pump on for 5-10 seconds or until a slight pink color is seen in site glass or filter discharge.
Turn pump off and turn valve to closed position, if available. Let filter cleaner soak for 12-24 hours before backwashing. Backwash filter for at least 2 minutes or until site glass or filter discharge water is clear of color, dirt or debris. Rinse and return to normal operation.
Non-backwashable D.E. or Cartridge Filters:
Turn pump off. Remove elements from filter and rinse off debris with a high pressure hose. Immerse completely and soak for 12-24 hours in a clean plastic bucket containing 1 quart of this product in 5 gallons of water for small filter elements or 2 quarts of this product in 10 gallons of water for large filter elements. Clean and rinse thoroughly with water using a high pressure hose. Replace elements and resume normal operation. For best performance, allow D.E. filter spectrum or cartridge element to completely dry before operation.
