I’m at a loss so reaching out- This is my first year using our AG pool, it was installed by the previous homeowners. I’m religious about keeping my chemicals balanced and cleaning/vacuuming it every other day. Despite all of this, there are brown dirt/sand spots that accumulate on the bottom of the pool. When I empty the vacuum it’s full of sand. Is this coming from my filter? Our previous pool was smaller with a different pump system and I never had problems keeping it clean. Any advice would be very appreciated!

If you are sure it is sand (gritty, easily picked up) then it is most likely coming from the filter. You might want to clean it out and check the laterals, etc.
