I set up my pool last week, after having issues on our first attempt with the legs sinking into our sandy soil, until the pool was 2 inches off, and also with suspected mustard algae.
We used 12 x 12 pavers this time under the legs and they are working great. The pool is perfectly level.
I cleaned out the pool when empty really well, then soaked the floor in a high bleach solution, and brushed down the walls with it.
After filling the pool, the water was crystal clear. I noticed dust on the floor of the pool right away. I added bleach for a few days, and kept brushing up the dust. We do have 150 ft mature trees in our front yard, and have tilled up our soil in the backyard. It's been windy, and we have dogs, so we've had a lot of dust blowing around.
I kept the pool with bleach for a few days, then added 4 bags of Clorox Pool Salt, and more bleach. Within 2 hours the water took on a yellowish tint.
Has anyone heard of this happening from pool salt?? It's been a few days, and the yellow is remaining. It happened last time also, but I added the salt at night, and didn't make the connection.
Here are my last test levels.
