My name is Kell, I'm a 51 year old single father of 2 of the worlds greatest kids and have unfortunately, purchased an Intex pool...LOL...had the same issue last year when shocking the pool it turned into Lake Erie in the late 60's and had all kinds of fun cleaning it up...unfortunately, again, I don't quite remember all of what I did last year so I'm starting over!
I already know I have well water and a whole lot of iron, shocking the pool causes that iron to turn my water into a watered down chocolate pudding looking thing, so, I'm using the pillow batting method at the pools outake and am changing the filters often!
I love my kids and want them to enjoy their pool, all of this brown, yucky water is depressing but if I could do it last year, I'll do it again, this!
I am a former army airborne ranger (77 thru 91)...I 'think' I can beat a pool full of water! LOL
You folks have a great summer and I'll be back to check out the articles and seek advise
