    intex filter pumps

    We use a sand filter now and have a SWG attached to it. It's a lot easier not having to mess with the stupid cartridges. We actually gave the pump that came with our pool to a friend of ours.

    pool is cloudy/greenish..HELP

    There are a lot more qualified people here but if it was me I would keep shocking until you can get a better test kit. I personally have the taylor test kit. Liquid test kits are much closer that the the test strips are. (IMHO)You need to shock until you can pass the OCLT test
