So I'm a newbie, last year I installed my pool, opened it up and then came winter so I winterized everything.
Today I went out and hooked up all my equipment, its a 21ft above ground pool FYI. My water is pretty green from all the reading what I need to do is start the pump and let water circulate.
Now my question is I drained the sand filter (Hayward S-180T) before winter do I need to put water in now to get it to a certain level or just top up water in pool and fire up the pump and let it run for a while then do the tests and add chemicals as necessary?
I guess I'm worried about starting anything if the filter needs to have water in it first?
