Second year with the intex 15’ agp. Last year was great from May - July. Used chlorine tablets, cleaned it well, upgraded to a sand filter. One week after heavy rains, it went greenish. Ok, not a problem, fixed it right up. Shocked it. Then it happened again without warning. I thought it was a friends kid who has very curly hair and lots of product. It got cloudy every time she came. It just stayed cloudy and gross. Chlorine was pointless as was any clearing agent.
I had to use floc it got so bad. After battling it for weeks and lots of reading, I realized my stabilizer got out of wack. I did a half drain and switched to liquid chlorine and kept a constant eye on it until time to close.
What can I do to avoid the cloudy mess and constant monitoring?
*the tablets I started with were cheap from Walmart. When I bought the Clorox brand is when things got weird. That’s what lead me to read on the stabilizer.
We use it daily unless it’s raining, which happens a lot down south. I do cover it if I know the rain will last a week.
