Figured I'd start a new post for this topic. I just got over an algae problem as detailed here: hi-everyone-new-here-t21008.html
Now the next problem is the cloudy paticulate matter that's still in the pool. I've had the filter on 24/7 for a few days and it hasn't started clearing up at all. The last time I was able to get the pool totally clear was by using a flocculant and vaccuming to waste. It would appear that my sand filter just can't cut out the smaller particles.
So the question is, what to do?
Pool is about 3-4 years (I think) old so the sand shouldn't have to be replaced, right?
Should I add a secondary filter - perhaps a canister filter for final polishing?
I would hate to have to resort to a montly flocculant treatment since I got my first water bill and it's $60 a month....
