Removing Dead Algae from the pool-SOS

[pratzert]

As long as your water is in balance you could add a flocking agent to settle everything to the bottom of the pool, typically these work over night and are great for getting a pool close to presentable in a fast period of time.

Hi! I am also trying to clear up my pool. It was green when I opened it and I have managed to "kill" the algea.

But it is very cloudy.

What is the difference between a Flocculant and a Clarifier?

I did pour in some clarifier. But perhaps I should get some flocculant also ??

Thanks, Tim

Flocculant is supposed to make everything fall to the bottom of the pool so you can vacuum to waste.

Clarifier makes small particles larger so your filter can catch them better.

Most people on the forum do not recommend regular use of either of them. If you want more info, you can use the search feature to find threads that specifically address both products.

Thanks for the info.....
