Yes i have lots of trees around the pool and i get heavy pine needles and stuff that blows under the mesh cover sides.as of now i looked thru the cover while my head was on it and i can see the bottom of the shallow end so that tells me its clear. i do open later than i need to so doing it a week early or so may help.

im just seeing what option works better for me. My thought was to block the sun and keep a bit of chlorine in the water till i open and it may help. i feel like unless i check/adj the chlorine every 2 days or so before i open it than it turns green and bits me in the butt.

Does anyone feel a solid tarp cover over the mesh will also help since it blocks the sunlight.
