Hello all,
It is pool season again and I am back. It is decided that we're only going to have the pool up July-September every year since that is when people would be using it, and we don't really feel like having to care for a pool we're not using the other 9 months.
Anyway, when I packaged up my pool at the end of the season last year, it said to use talcum/baby powder on the liner to keep it dry while in storage. So this year when I set it up, I did not think it was necessary to wash out the talcum power before filling it because I figured the pump filter and chemicals would clean it out. However this does not seem to be the case; the water will be clear after running the pump for the 4.5 hours, but as soon as people are swimming the water becomes cloudy again which I suspect is the talcum power getting stirred up from the bottom. The pool has been up for 2 weeks at this point.
Any suggestions for filtering out whatever is causing the water to become cloudy? Do they make finer filters for the pump I have?
