Pool Filter Sand

I just finished changing the sand in the pool filter.  It's a Triton, and thankfully I didn't have to cut or remove any of the pool piping.  Just unscrew the top and swing the baffle out of the way.

The rest of the procedure is pretty straignt-forward.  Remove the sand with a coffee can and a shop vac, then fill with clean sand.  300 pounds of clean pool filter sand.  It's a dirty job, but not particularly difficult.  Follow label instructions, your mileage might vary.  But it's done for another four years.
