How Do I Fix My Green Pool?
- Empty the leaf basket in the skimmer, as well as the lint pot in the pump.
- If you have a media filter, clean it by either backwashing & rinsing. If you have a cartridge filter, take your cartridge element out and then hose and degrease the cartridge.
- Test your water’s chemical balance and adjust the alkalinity to approximately 120ppm. Adjust the pH factor to approximately 7.6.
- Shock dose the pool with chlorine and Algiguard.
- Run the filter until the water runs clear.
- Vacuum the silt that is now on the bottom of the pool.
- Maintain the free available chlorine at 3ppm.
