Cloudy Water

Cloudy pools may be the result of (check with customer): Dead algae.

  • It could be related to insufficient or inadequate filtration.
  • A high pH can also contribute towards having a cloudy pool.
  • Check running time of pump (12 hours/day in summer)
  • Ensure that the filter is operating efficiently and that the cause of the problem is not as a result of dirty filter sand.
  • If needed, clean the sand with Filter Cleanse.
  1. Clean the weir and pump baskets and Backwash the filter.
  2. Balance the pH to between 7.2 and 7.6.
  3. Add 500ml NEW Aqua Dazzle for every 25,000 litres of pool water, for cloudy water where the bottom is still visible.
  4. Run the pump for at least 12 hours. It would be advantageous to do a once-off 24-hour run.
