First off, I'm not sure what is going on this year with regards to my pool. I've owned my 28' AGP for 4 years. This year it seems every week my pool gets cloudy and turns green. I've tried to keep my levels right but doesn't help much. Here's the thing, it looks green, but if I turn the pump off all of this yellowish/greenish "powder" falls to the floor of the pool, leaving the water perfectly clear. So, I vacuum to filter but all this does is float this powder back into the pool the filter does not catch most of it. Now to be up front, I have trees all around my pool in the back yard, large trees. This has not happened in the years prior with this pool....
SO, I saw this product at Wally World and decided what the heck I'll try it... This pool is larger than 10,000 gallons so I used 2 pods. Within 3 hours there was virtually NO output of water back into the pool. So I back washed it. I couldn't see any green, yellow or any other color coming thru the sight glass so I put it the valve back to filter. Water pressure is back to normal, but I only back washed for about 30 seconds or so...?
I don't know if my problem is pollen or what but it sure is frustrating. Btw way I am using a brand new this year sand filter and pump. I typically do not use the brand name stuff, I use bleach, backing soda, myuratic acid. I've always been able to maintain a virtually a clear pool until this year but our weather has been much different than years in the past.
