100,000 gal pool

[PoolDoc]

You're welcome.

Please note that I was NOT suggesting that you add it all at once; rather that 100# of dichlor was an appropriate quantity for your pool, and will allow you to raise your stabilizer in the process of chlorinating.

Per your email, you should vacuum up all that loose DE.

(BTW, please post online instead of emailing. Thanks!)

Oh, sorry about that. Here's the post:

Before the grids & manifold were replaced, it seems that the filter was blowing DE powder back into the pool. I'm guessing that's why it's still cloudy, that there's lots of DE powder in the pool. Although, I can see the step now in the deep end!

Per your email, you should vacuum up all that loose DE.

Does the DE powder settle to the bottom of the pool or is it suspended in the water causing the cloudy water?

[PoolDoc]

The DE settles, the dirt that was in the DE is likely suspended.
