Let's pretend that I am trying to filter out iron. Is there a way to do this for around $500?

Thank you for the help!

yes

Do you have a DIY method or recommend a thread here for one?

I do have rainwater collection but this time of year it just can't keep up with the evaporation. I've thought several times about a solar cover...or bubble wrap over the pool at night. It just seems like so much work to take off and put back on.

So I started opening, early and without too many problems. I opened to my usual green pool and because I didn't open last year (I was out of time), it was way worse than usual. So I did my usual SLAM, was getting to where I could see the bottom of the deep end, however it was still pretty...

I mean yes and no. What about slam times? I have to slam at every opening. No matter what I do. My mesh cover just doesn't keep enough stuff out to allow me to open to a clear pool. I have done the close late and open early thing and it still didn't work out for me.
