Cloudy water after pool party. What do you do ?

[Wadeod]

I’m sure we all go through this. Pool numbers are perfect and pool is crystal clear.

Then em you have a pool party and the numbers look good, but water is cloudy.

Is is there something you do before or during pool party? Get chlorine up?

Or is there anything out there like Super Blue that would clear the water?

just curious what your plan of attack is?

I see it quite a bit with my wife, and grand daughter...

Have found through testing that a lot of the cloudiness has to do with sunblock lotions, and tanning lotions.

They dissipate with time, and chlorine

What big Ron said above. When you are anticipating a “pool party”, or it just happens, the amount of chlorine that is used up due to, sun screen, sweat, pea, ( yup it happens) etc, you have to pre or post chlorine.
If you jump into your pool after a good bather load, just look at the surface. You’ll swear an oil barge just sank.

Bump up the FC 3 or 4 points before a party and re-up immediately after.
