Like Dave said, post some test numbers (not strip results--take a sample to the pool store for testing, but DON'T buy anything else they want to sell you, unless it's a toy!), and we should be able to help you get your pool cleared up so your relationship stays a little more to the love side !

In answer to your question, yes, you should have your pump running 24/7 and brush the pool well at least daily
