What do Rancho Santa Fe homeowners ask about filter service?

How often should I clean my pool filter in Rancho Santa Fe?

Cartridges: every 3-6 months. DE: every 3-6 months plus annual teardown. Sand: backwash every 4-6 weeks, full media change every 5 years.

My Rancho Santa Fe pool filter pressure keeps rising fast. What's wrong?
