Answer 7

Depends on what sort of orange colour it is.  You should look into why it is that colour.  It could be an imbalance of chemicals, and might not be healthy.

Once, our pool went orange because it had algae growing in it but then the chemicals we put in killed it and the dead algae was orange.  We were told that this was fine to swim in.

I didn't swim in it until it was normal colour again, though.

Answer 8

if it is orange, you have a high amount of iron in your pool and you will ruin your bathing suit, and you could get very sick. Drain your pool immediately, then clean it. When you refill your pool, see if the water has an orange tint to it. If it does, then you might want to invest in a water softener. Don't get a cheap one though. They don't work as good. If you do get a water softener, do research about them first, so you don't have to soak a lot of money into two water softeners.
