DE powder in pool

[aylad]

Hi yellowdog,

This is one of the very, very few times that I would recommend use of a clarifier, if the filter isn't trapping it. A few years ago I replaced my sand filter, and when I filled it up with zeosand and started it up for the first time in 'filter" mode (a mistake I won't EVER make again!!) my pool did much the same as yours, and no amount of filtering was making a difference. Looked like a huge mud puddle in my back yard. I used a product by Natural Chemistry called Clear and Perfect, and the next day it was almost completely clear, and on the second morning it was again sparkling. Vac'd all the stuff to waste and chalked it up as a hard-earned lesson.
