DE Filter Pressure After Backwashing

My Filter pressure was reading 26. Backwashed and recoated. Pressure went down to 16.

I notice info on the web stating normal pressure immediately after a backwash should be in the 8-10 range.

Is 16 after a backwash and recoat a sign of another problem. FYI filter grids were replaced with new ones

about 6 months ago.

Thank you

Hello Tom - Every pool system is different. A normal pressure on your pool may be 16. If 16 psi has always been the starting pressure, I wouldn’t worry about it.
