Just cleaned my DE Fileter first time! Have question

[robertjones]

After cleaning my DE filter and putting it back together I am losing lots of water out of the pool. There are no leaks at the pump or filter so I am unsure as to what is going on. Is this normal? Perhaps I am just refilling the filter?

I am a little nervous because we did have a leak last year in one of our skimmers and got it fixed and I am concerned that possibly there is another leak.

Please let me know if it is typical to experience water loss after cleaning filter.

Thanks!!!

The two are unrelated. Cleaning the filter would not cause a noticeable water loss or a leak.
