How often does the CC200 need to be cleaned? Please specify pool size if possible.

My pool is 10,000 gallons. But how often to clean depends on use. I clean my filter once a week.

They recommend cleaning when the gauge pressure increases by 10 PSI over the pressure reading when clean. How long that takes is a function of how much debris is in your pool. I use basket buddies in my skimmer and clean the cartridge max 4 times a year (15,000 gal).

look at page 6 of the manual. it's located athttp://www.danby.com/cms/documents/pdfs/en/DDR50A2GP_DDR60A2GP_DDR70A2GP_DDR60A1CP_EFOM_%28DM%29_Revised_Feb_27_2013_%28web2%29.pdfevery 2 weeks is the recommended frequency of cleaning

It depends on your climate, and water chemistry. I live in a fairly warm area (95-100 most of the summer), and I keep the pool up from May through September. I generally add about a cup of ph increaser each week, about 2oz algaecide each week, and about a gallon of chlorine each month (as needed), in addition to a floating chlorine tablet dispenser to which I add about two 3" tablets every ten days or so. I vacuum the bottom of the pool about every two weeks, and I clean/change the filter at the same time. You might not have to vacuum as often, it depends on how much stuff gets tracked in on little feet. ;) Finally, I run the filter for four hours a day. However, I upgraded to a higher volume pump with larger hoses. If you use the pump and filter setup that comes with the pool, I'd recommend running it six hours every day. I've been using Intex EZ set pools for eight years (I use each one for two years, then give it to a friend who gets at least another year out of it). This oval frame pool is definitely the best one yet, and when it wears out, I'll likely get another one just like it. I spend about 20 minutes a week on maintenance, and the rest is pure enjoyment! I hope this is helpful. :)

I haven't had one issue with my pool all summer. Have you tried running the boost cycle to address the green? I haven't added any chemicals other than the salt all season & my water is crystal clear! I run the boost about once a week (after heavy rain or heavy usage) My pool is small 14' so I am sure that is a factor if you have a larger pool. I have read about people getting the too much salt issue. Usually emptying a little usually does the trick. But if it continues I would contact the company. It may be an issue with the system (which I have heard too) They do honor their warantee, but are very slow. Good Luck I haven't had one issue with my pool all summer.

The water chamber has a little weight to it. The only maintenance required is changing carbon filters every once in a while. I clean my chamber by soaking viniger inside of it overnight.

Yes, I have 2 or 3 times in last couple of years. It is a filtering aid andit is so good you need to watch your pump gauge to to max and back wash. Still keep watching onthe second go round meaning you are not finished backwashing. Hope this helps. It makes mypool sparkle.

I would not use an "automatic" pool cleaner. Get it out, or nearly all, "by hand." Otherwise you will ruin pumps.

I could never find the shorty filters, so I sucked it up and bought the larger pump / filtration unit. I buy the filters OFF season and stock them in my shop until pool time. Several people said the filters are made to be cleaned and re-used. I've never had any luck with that, so longer life from filters IS saving me money. We run ours 24 / 7 too.

I usually have to run mine for a couple hours. But you have to keep an eye on the bag that needs changing. I have owned several pool cleaning machines, this one by far is the best.

Im wondering if this worked for you? I have the same pool which is about 10,000 gallons- higher than the 7,000 it states. I read that you just need to look at how much the pump cycles per hour- was this one big enough for you? How's it working?

I'm not an expert, but that certainly sounds excessive. My Hayward is about 6 years old and I just replaced mine for the first time. I probably waited too long, so I'd say 4, maybe 5, years. Mine generally runs about 6 hours a day in a 35,000 gal. pool.

Carbon I would at once every couple months, my method with all filters and water parameters is if it's not broken, don't try to fix it. This filter is horrible though, both replacements leaked about 3 gallons of water on my carpet, spend an extra hundre and get a fluval 206

Lol, it runs on a programmed timer. Large, small pool. As for how long it takes to fill up the bags? Depends on how dirty your pool is.

One year we had a pump. It was completely useless and brings the price of what I think of a "disposable" pool way up. This summer we got the one without the pump. It's the same deal. We keep it covered, add chlorine every day, and use a skimmer. We empty it and refill it every week or two. It has stayed pretty clean so far and it gets used on a regular basis. Our dog even likes to play in it. Hope this was helpful. :-D

We turn it on for 5 hrs daily. Low maintenance. Love it. We had disposable filters before very expensive. We used one a week. This is much more efficient and less costly. Saw no significant increase in electricity. Pool is sparkling clean!!! Good Luck

I've got a 18ftx4ft pool and it worked fine for me. I think these are all pretty standard sizes. I actually don't close off the water flow when I clean my filter though. I unscrew the top, take the filter out and let the water flow out the top until it's clear. The water in the housing will be largely unfiltered water anyway and tends to collect a lot of crud on the dirty side of the filter. When the water flowing out the top is clear, I put the top of the housing back in place and take the filter and clean it. Then I re-open the filter housing and put the filter back in. The water you loose this way isn't enough to really affect the pool level if you are reasonably careful. I've got a 18ftx4ft pool and it worked fine for me.

I did filter pad, carbon and ammonia, rings then balls. I haven't cleaned it yet...just set it up last month. So far that setup seems to work fine.
