• CHECK BED DEPTH ON SAND FILTER ANNUALLY (2-3 in Southern markets, 1-2 times in Northern markets):
o Sand
o ZEOlite
o GLASS

(Filter bed depth should be six to eight inches from the top of the filter and, if short, will result in murky water and/or increased chemical use.)

In southern pools these items will result in extra charges from the service. With northern pools they can be ordered with an opening or closing and also involve charges.
