Well guys I am 1 week into my pool and enjoying it (not as much as kids). Are there any preferences/guidelines on when/how long to run the pumps? For the first 5 days we ran the pump 24 hours/day to assist with clearing the water. The last few we ran from 6 am to 2 pm. We were getting some dirt settlement and spot vacuuming as needed. I’ve noticed that water would turn slightly cloudy after swimming, so I changed the pump cycle to 6 pm to 2 am, so circulation is during/after swimming.

I am expecting the pool to remain somewhat dirty until grass is established where build-up dirt was spread. I have been vacuuming through the waste, so I haven’t been too concerned with the TA, as I will be filling as needed. Should this be of higher priority right now? Also, the installer provided a chlorine injector and tabs, so after adding CYA to 30, I’ve been waiting on the tabs to dissolve prior to increasing to 40ish.
