Re: cloudy water
You'd be better off with a manual vacuum. But, you sorta have to get a whole package. I looked on Amazon, and they have PoolMaster which I think is OK residential quality stuff. I'm not sure, because I've always used commercial grade products which are considerably more expensive. Anyhow:
Poolmaster 27514 Classic Full View Triangular Vinyl Liner Vacuum @ Amazon
Poolmaster 33430 Premium Vacuum Hose with Swivel Cuff, 30ft x 1-1/2in @ Amazon
Poolmaster 20172 18in Nylon Aluminum Back Pool Brush @ Amazon
Poolmaster 21191 Premier Aluminum Pool Leaf Skimmer, Black/Silver @ Amazon
Hydro Tools 8365 8- to 16-Foot Adjustable Fluted Premium Fluted Telescopic Pool Pole, White @ Amazon

Needed mostly for spring and fall clean-up:
Poolmaster 21196 Premier Aluminum Pool Leaf Rake
You can look around locally. The stuff I've seen personally in Lowes, Walmart, etc. is junk. I'd guess pool stores have a higher grade of gear, but I haven't been in a pool store in 20 years. You can find higher grade stuff at some of the only retailers. Rainbow (now a Pentair brand) has some decent poles and an excellent (but expensive) commercial vac head. Nycon makes commercial grade skimmers, brushes, and leaf rakes.
