Note: Although In theory the filter cleaning solution can be used with sand filters by diluting the solution and pouring it directly into the sand filter's chamber, it's really not user friendly and may lead to equipment damage.
Best practice to keep your sand filters clean is regular backwashing.
If backwashing no longer cleans your sand filters, it may be time to change out your pool filter sand.
