Hi everyone, I love this bbb method and tell everyone who owns a pool about it! My question is...each year I fill my pool, 18x48 intex with the little pump that came with it..the water seems fine until someone swims and plays..then the water gets to be a pretty blue color but cloudy. I do have well water so I made sure to put in metal out which cleared nicely. Until I had a couple swimmers. now I cannot find metal out anywhere tho I found I think the same thing on Amazon last night so I ordered it. Meanwhile, I'm just pouring bleach in and the pump runs 12 hrs overnight. Any suggestions? I would like the pool to be ready for this memorial day weekend. thanks a lot! I appreciate any help! Or suggestions on where to find metal out!

What test kit are you using to test your water? Please be specific. For example, Taylor K2005, etc.

How do you chlorinate your water?

Can you also please provide a full set of latest test results? Include pH, free chlorine, combined chlorine, calcium hardness, total alkalinity, and cyanuric acid

Finally, can you give us more information about your pool? Please add the following to your signature if you are able to: size of pool in gallons, type of filter (sand, DE, or cartrdge); brand and model of the pump

Also, how often do you run your pump each day?

Welcome to TFP :)
