What should the pressure be on a Jandy pool pump?

How often should I clean my Jandy pool filter?

How do I know when to change my pool filter cartridge?
A sure sign that your cartridge filter needs replacing is if the filters themselves look frayed and tattered. This means that they’ve already exceeded their lifetime and they can no longer filter out your water properly.
What should my pool filter pressure be?
+/- 10 psi
The pool filter pressure should be steady, operating in a range of +/- 10 psi. When it’s outside this range, very low or very high, then you know that something’s wrong. Some gauges allow you to set the clean and dirty range, or you can write it on the filter tank with a marker.
What PSI should my pool sand filter run at?
9-10 psi
Your filter may be clean and normal at 9-10 psi, but your neighbor’s filter gauge could run higher, and be clean at 15-16 psi. Some systems with very low resistance can run very low pressures, barely registering, while other filter systems can run quite high, pushing 30 psi when the filter becomes dirty.
What’s the difference between rinse and backwash?
Rinse runs water in the same direction that normal filtering does. Backwash runs it through the sand in the opposite direction. Rinse is to clear any dirt out of the clean side of the sand before you start sending it back to the pool.
