I have had a constant problem with pollen in my pool for the 3 years I've owned it. My sand filter just doesn't catch the super-fine dust that gets in the water. This problem is in many threads on this forum with many mistaking it for mustard algae. I've already been down that road(more than once) and am almost positive that pollen is the nemesis of my pool.
Things I've tried in the past include skimmer socks, DE in the filter, and frequent backwashing. Tried a clarifier once but that did nothing.
Would a flocculant work with pollen or is that likely a waste of money too?
The only other thing I can think of is that I'll have to switch to a different kind of filter?....
