Great topic.
I have actually never back flushed.
It has been in use for almost 3 years and was actually running for the last 6 days straight to fill my 180 with 100gal sump with an out put on the tds coming in at 25.
So i need back flush.

Now you have me freaking out though.
When i left his am the water line was at the top and I totally forgot to shut it off. So per my calculations by the time I get home I will have about 20 gal of water covering the basement floor. Not good. I better have those power strips off the floor. :-)

BTW just started sweating.
