Are we finished?

There were marble sized clumps of some gummy green/black stuff mixed throughout the sand.

Ok, but at the risk of sounding really lazy and stupid.....if the filter is working and the water is clear, why is that a problem? It's not that I don't want to change the sand as much as I'm curious about the answer to that.

Congratulations on the conversion! I can now run my pool for 4 months using bleach & stablizer for what it cost me to just use Clear Comfort for 3 weeks...though I'm more happy about having clear water all the time now.

Thanks so much, Gracie! It's hard for me to say what I'm more happy about, the savings, the beautiful water, or the ease of maintenance! I spent the better part of this summer sweeping stinky algae out of a funky pool that I wouldn't dream of setting foot in! Now all we really need is a two week long hot spell so I can finish enjoying my newly gorgeous pool!

when you do decide to change the sand ( & it sounds like most convertors here are recommending that change), consider refilling with a Zeobrite product instead of sand
