  1. i work at a pool store and when you add your water from now on get a filter that will thread on to the end of your garden hose to help catch some of the minerals that comes from the water you are filling with or tie a bunch of old socks to the end of your garden hose to do the same. add a sequestering agent to the water as you're filling and add it weekly as a preventative maitenence. bleach should only affect your chlorine.


  2. well, the best thing you can do is to keep adding the pool chlorine and other chemicals. It will take a while to change it's colour, but trust me it will work. so if i were you i would add the water in a bit earlier, so you have enough time to get it in a clear consistency.

  3. you need to pre filter the water....they have a device which fits on your hose  that pre filters the water...

  4. Try adding some chlorine to your well.  Let the chlorine stay in the well for a couple of hours then pump it out through an outside faucet.  Do this a couple of times to clean the well.  Iron Algae is often a problem in water wells and this will help to kill the algae and clean your well.  This may help the iron problem without pumping it to the pool.

  5. You need a product that removes metals from the water. Here is a link to a water care guide for the do it yourself pool owner:
