We have a 15×42 Intex self set pool.. Filled it up and followed the recommendations for start up.. Had 2 days of 100 degree weather and the pool turned bright green..Got the green out but now it’s sooooooo cloudy…In the morning it’s clear and as soon as you get in it this tan colored debris starts floating and makes it cloudy again.. the PH is 7.5 and the chlorine is a 4… I’m changing and cleaning the filter daily for a week now and now help.. What should I do now?? I tried Natural Chemistry First Aid and it hasn’t helped… Could my pump not be big enough?? It’s supposed to be 1000 GPH…

Answer:

The best scenario is to vacuum out the particulate that has settled out at night. Vacuum it to waste and then you may need to top off with fresh water.
