rt said:thanks so you are saying that the type of shock used has caused the cloudiness? if so, what type of shock do you suggest? and the filter has been running non stop for over three weeks with new sand (s244t) so I quess I will just need to wait for the filter to clear the pool?
thanks
Sometimes dirty sand filters better than new, clean sand - have you tried the "DE in the sand filter" trick yet? Instructions are in pool school. Or the clarifier, if you already have it.
