Hi Ray: The bead was installed with the backflush valve provided by Gary at GCTeck. No other special piping other then I just rinse with air, backwash with water then rinse with water. Then place the valve back to filter after rinse. This is when I have noted a cloud discharged from the tpr's. I have also noticed ground up bakki house media mixed with green algae on floor of pond near bakki shower bypass at waterfall. I suspect the bakki house media under high water pressure and weight has broken down some what and collects in bottom tray. This is flushed out and collects at base of waterfall or in bypass pipes and flushed out if I open the bypass valves. I will have to aske Gary about his bead filter opertation. Good think the filters circulate the water every 20 min., or so. This should help. The koi are all at the bottom now for the night.
