Hi All
Brand new poster here. I have done as much research as I can before posting but would appreciate some advice. We have a brand new IG pool about 30000liters. Pebble. We live in the bush and there is a fair bit of sandstone dirt at the moment that the kids feet now and then gets in the pool. I have been cleaning the pool and learning fast about PH and calcium ect. But now when I clean the pool, after sucking up the sand for say 15 min. Sand starts coming through the jets. and fills the pool with cloudy dust. I did a small back wash and rinse of our Hayward sand filter. And then ran the filter and that stopped the sand coming through the jets. But now I have cleaned it again halfway through sand started coming through the jets again. I am at of a loss at to what to do. As we are on tank water and water is a precious resource. Rinsing and backwashing (waste) empties alot of water.
Any and all help appreciated.
So you know I do not think the kids would have walked more than a small shovel load of sand into the pool total. It's not like its a beach in there just a small amount. I am quite bedazzled. I would call the pool installer. However our relations are not the best as when we were building the home and the pool he 1. filled the pool from our tanks (wasnt supposed too) and then left the tap running and lost 50000 liters of water down our block. Never gave us any water back either. So all help dearly appreciated Thankyou again
