## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is diffferen dicalite-50a to dicalite-50b?**
A: I did some research and as far as I can tell, this bag is a mix of 50A and 50B DE which seems to deal with how small of particles can be filtered. Straight 50B will filter down to 2 microns and this mix of 50A & 50B will filter to 3 to 5 microns. The tiny bit larger size in this mix mostly likely allows for a more efficient pool filter operation with less electricity used and less strain on your pump. It is still small enough to get my pool sparkling clear. Highly recommended.

**Q: Why we use this and when we should use this?**
A: You would use it if you have a DE filter running with your pool. You put it in the pool skimmer after cleaning the filter...and may need to add some periodically if you have to back flush the pool water.

**Q: Placed an order a month ago, item still has not shipped, will it?**
A: And no communication from the seller to explain the delay or notification on the website? If not, contact the seller through Amazon.

**Q: Is this food grade?**
A: No. Do not eat it. There are other DE food grade types. Be sure to check the details on what you buy before eating it.

Great product work exactly like it's supposed to.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good DE powder
*by M***A on June 8, 2025*

This DE powder has worked well for my pool filter. I’ve been using it for about 2 years now. It has helped to keep our pool clean. You get two large bags in one box that weighs a lot so be sure someone in your family can handle the weight.
