You need a inline chlorinator pentair 320. And change your sand to Zeosand. All problems solved.

Thank you so much...We have had a slightly green turned all the way green pool since June when we opened. What a pain.....saw ur video and tool a chance. I cannot believe the results.....totally clear, sparkling, blue blue!!!! Thank you so much for sharing!!!! 💙

I used this and worked GREAT! Thanks for sharing the info!

lol at the glasses on the fence. This last Florida tornado that came through has my pool looking green like this too. Thanks for the information!

The glasses on the fence was hysterical. Gift wrap them and give them to him on the next holiday😉

OMGosh it worked. Thank you for making this video. I immediately bought the hth ultimate and it worked.

I love how personal you were in your video about your family😃.. even though this video was primarily about how to clear up your pool, you made it fun👏🏾👏🏾✌🏾

I know this is an old video, but you cracked me up from the start. I can SO relate. "This pool is the bane of my existence. I wanted a trampoline" 😂😂😂

damn that's some good stuff, works fast as well, i didn't expect that, shame im in England no point having a pool here as we got a built in shower in our sky LOL.

Wow, that did work like a charm! take care , xxx

Thanks for helping !! 2 years later !! Still watching n learning !

THANK YOU, SAME POOL, SAME PROBLEM. Ultimately Swamp to Swim, your suggestion wasn't available anywhere, but they're both made by same company. I'm down $150 on crap that wouldn't work when all I had to do was Google, &30 and a few hours I'm astonished at the change and grateful I can swim again!!

I've ALWAYS used the chemicals at Walmart.. Never had a problem. Need to look for the 7-1. Haven't seen that one. Thanks!

This Is The Best Demonstration I Have Seen On The Green Water Syndrome! Im About To Go Get Some And It Better Work!😂😂😊😊 Thank You For The Video!!❤❤❤

I have the same pool and its definitely takes a lot of maintaining. Once or twice a week. That stuff works great also

Thanks soooo much for sharing this I'm definitely going to try this now!!

learning how to care for a pool. this is a great help. thank you

I relate to the first 20 seconds of this video soooo much. 🤣

Wow. You have made my day. I will try that. Thanks.

picked up some yesterday put it in last night went out to check it with coffee in hand had Alot of floating stuff so I said OK let me put some more in ordered a skimmer and sand filter sys should be in Friday. I'll net what I can but it looks like its doing the job. thanks. beats cleaning 22 ft pool all by hand for sure. happy summer to you and yours

Thank you for the info, I since I wanted a Pool. So , I’m the pool lady that’s does not know what she’s doing 😁😁. We had rain couple weeks ago and I’m still dealing with the green pool. I’ll keep this video a secret from my husband, and with your help I’ll end up being a hero to the POOL.

Thank you!!! I am going to follow these steps

I’m having a time getting rid of the green. I’m so glad I saw this because I will definitely try it.

Glasses, the best part, lol.Thank you for sharing this video

Thank you for sharing.... That's Awesome...

I bought this product today my pool is looking very sad. I have been working on it for days and nothing is working. I am gonna try this product now. Thanks for the advice and video

Awsome thabks for the tips!

Impressive, will try product! Thanks!

Thank you for sharing😁

Great video I should try this my pool is dark green right now

Amazing!!! I'm getting me some of that for my pool

I love HTH product. They work great as well as easy on the pockets.

Very helpful...thank you!

Thank you so much this helped

glad you found his glasses!

This is exactly what I need!! My pool looks like diarrhea. THANK YOU :)

Amazing before and after....and so fast...wow....ty

Omg I need this stuff for my green pool.

I understand the frustration. We have a pool and I'm constantly fighting the algae. Right now it's green after a few days of rain and wind. Trying to clean it up. There's also yellow algae I've been fighting. Seems it never ends.

lol !!! laughing at your hubs loosing glasses! i'm the same way

That's good stuff. I use the hth shock in the 1 lb bags. That and alot of algaecide cleaned our pool after being covered all winter. I put some stuff in it for winter that didn't work at all. I never ever thought it would get clean. But the hth products along with scrubbing walls and backwashing the filter every 2 hrs to begin with and running it 24 hrs a day, about a week later (would have been sooner if I had an entire day to work on it) my pool is sparkling blue and ready for warm weather. We may have to convert ours to salt if the chlorine shortage gets bad. I have about 30 lbs of chlorine stocked up, that should last a while

I got some at my True Value store and I sure hope that it works in my pool like it did in yours. The cashier uses it in her pool and praised it. I'll let you know what it does for mine.

i subscribed and liked ur vids Aunt Amy !

That is some amazing stuff right there!!

All the great speeches of all times always include” I wanted a trampoline I got a pool”😂.

Maybe you could use a pool cover to keep the rain and also the sun from diluting the chlorine

I've never had an issue with a green pool not even at start up. Guess the daily maintenence pays off

I have a green pool. This is the first time in about 15 years. Thanks for the video. I want to drain some of the green water to the garden.

It refinished your deck as well!

Regardless of side tracking... THANK YOU FOR SHOWING HOW TO CLEAN A SALTWATER POOL!!!!!!😊👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 But this is it right? You don't need any other cleaning chemicals right?

Bleach, plain old 8.25% bleach. This is your chlorine sanitizer. Get a good test kit, and test daily. Once your pool shocked and stabilized, something that size prob only would take 4 ounces of bleach a day to maintain.

That's amazing!!🇺🇸❤️🌎✌️

Thanks Again So Much👍

Your pool is under a tree the leaves will cause debri and algae when it weeps...put a cover on it everytime its not in use and it will save u the grief

First you shouldn't just throw the stuff in the pool. Take a. 5 gallon bucket. Mix in bucket dump in pool clear in 30 min

Amen to your first statement!

Wow I learned something new today thanks for sharing my pool gets clear but I wanted to get blue

Look at all that phytoplankton!

Lol😂😂😂😂 Eyeglasses

This is very helpful I have a pool similar to yours accept it might be a little deeper but I need to tell my dad about this because we have been cleaning our pool with a net and only a net

That is good stuff and it does work. I could not get my hands on any this year, though; it was all sold out in my area and cost prohibitive online.

Blue does not mean sanitized.

How long after you put this Ultimate 7-1 in can u swim?

I see what you mean Amy. Congratulations!

To preserve the life of your vinyl pool, it would be a good idea to pre-dissolve this product in a bucket and then either pour the bucket in (if you're strong enough to lift such a bucket) or toss pitchers of the mix into the pool. I'm not sure what else is in this product, but the main ingredient is obviously Calcium Hypochlorite (AKA Cal-Hypo.) For the average pool owner, aside from the use of a salt water generator, there are essentially three ways to add chlorine to your pool: Cal Hypo, Sodium Hypochlorite (AKA liquid bleach,) and dichlor/trichlor (slightly different but very similar products.) For all of these methods, you are not only adding chlorine, but you are also adding something else into your pool -- *Calcium* Hypochlorite adds calcium, liquid bleach ( *sodium* hypochlorite) adds salt, and dichlor/trichlor add cyanuric acid (AKA "conditioner.") Additionally, Cal Hypo and liquid bleach (as well as salt water generation) raise your pH (basic) while dichlor/trichlor lowers your pH (acidic.) You should make your decisions on what products to use based upon your current water chemistry, which you can get tested at any local pool store or by ordering a test kit (store it inside.) If your pool's calcium is too high, avoid using Cal Hypo. If your cyanuric acid is too high, avoid using dichlor/trichlor, etc. Since you are using a salt water generator, which raises the pH & doesn't add cyanuric acid into the pool, it would be a good idea to shock it 2-3 times a year with 1 pound (2 lbs if it's green like this) of dichlor/trichlor granulated shock, which is available at any local pool store. (Stir it into a bucket of water as explained before.) This will help keep your cyanuric acid in the 50-100 ppm range and help to offset everything that you've got raising your pH. Once your cyanuric acid is in this range, any additional shock treatments could be done with liquid bleach (unscented & unthickened) or this cal hypo product that you're using here. If your calcium starts getting too high (above 275-300 ppm for vinyl,) you'll have to either quit using this cal hypo product (and go almost exclusively to liquid bleach) or drain the pool.

“I wanted a trampoline ...........:::

By the way nothing wrong with venting over glasses made me laugh . I lose mine all the time too I think is a men thing i don't know.

I love how many people watched this video and felt the need to tell you what you did wrong lol

Great video my pool does same to me after days of rain I'm gonna buy that stuff and try it

Hi! I'm dying to know what type of animal is being housed in your neighbors yard lol!

I spend $80 a season for a 31x16 salt water pool. I think the bigger the pool the easier it is to keep the levels correct.

This Definitely worked Quick !!! Thanks !!! No More Swimming Antifreeze / Gatorade !!!

This should be titled, listen to me complaining about my husband while i shock the pool.

Blue does not mean the water is safe for swimming.

Can you use this on a in ground pool with vinyl walls?

I am buying this. You should be a spokesperson.

❤works. Great thanks

Is it like swimming in bleach? I don't have a pool.

Great stuff, but i noticed your latter is rusted. Can that be some of the reason for the green color? Just a gesture.

LOL, shrubs, a land mine! Anyways, thanks for the vid.

Nice product

Only 56% calcium hypo chlorite is extremely weak.

I wanted a trampoline we got a pool. Buy a cover lol

I have a intex pool just like that but its way bigger and a rectangle but we first had chlorine and since i live in Florida it rains alot, especially during the summer, and it was horrible. So much maintenance. Definelty recommend getting the salt water part you can attached to the pump. Its rained alot and it doesnt get green. And you only really have to put salt in every year. I know this is late but i just thoight i would tell you that.

I have to buy it 😱‼️thanks Am also going to try the magic eraser for the cloudy 🤷🏻‍♀️. Do you have a video on how you guys installed the sand filter pump?

Your hilarous with the glasses. You have to be from Jersey or N.Y.

It's 56% calcium hypochlorite.

I'm a first time pool buyer. I put half a chlorine puck in the skimmer and one that floats in the pool. I shock once a week and the pool cover goes on every night. And I vaccume the pool as needed. No problem so far....but it's only been a month.

Thank you I’m running to Walmart mine it’s been green done everything levels are fine but green is a pain.

I'm confused. You said it would take a few days to clear then you said it was 2hrs...

This is really helpful

Great video!!! It worked! Thank you so much. Amy

You can buy a cover up for the rain ya know ..

A couple of days???? Your title says, 2 hours, not 2 days!

I watched this last night then lost your video. Just found again. As I purchased this stuff by mistake thinking was chlorine cpl weeks ago and I had already used to bags of HTC shock 4 in 1 Wed after cpl days hard long rains it turned green after long almost 2 mths getting cleared up after cover fell in 2nd wk of April so I can truly relate to your Opening statement. Had finally got done & enjoyed a day or so last being and taken pictures on 5/27. So Thursday still green I added 7 lbs of baking soda, Fri added 8 oz of algaecide. After viewing this last night I went and added 16 ozs Which is double for my pool and just did the 2 bags on Wed to this Am still greenish blue actually but cannot see the bottom still. First time went out after rain my basket was running over with leaves. Did the 2 bags of shock bk 2 next day another full basket of leaves. Surprised this basket is doing good as been thru aprox 6 or so since the miss hap with crepe myrtle last July. I do not know what to do at this point and never been so frustrated as I was last yr upon getting pool and filled around 27th of May to keeping a beautiful sparkling crystal blue until a crepe myrtle came into bloom beside my pool. So I was bk & forth to a local pool company testing water etc for almost 2 weeks to never got to seeing bottom. I called the pool company out for them to tell me I had chlorine fog. So just quit last yr and ordered my pool cover. So now scared and doing baby steps but want to get bk in my pool. Only thing I see doing as I have not yet is to drain a little water down but I'm thinking I need to backwash but do not wanna loose any possibility of anything put in as this 16 oz of the 7 in 1 last night so now from initial 2 bags htc 4 in 1 from Wed to now additional 16 oz Sat 7 in 1 that is 3-4 lbs as of Sat? Yet pool company last yr had me put 8 or so lbs in at once. To never got cleared. Also reading as I'm very particular how and what it says on these boxes etc. After seeing you spread out over the pool I had used once and it said to gradually pour into filter slowly. My pool is 24x48 and just got a partial deck this year to now wishing I had not. I'm beyond frustration at this point. This pool I did not even want as I mentioned getting a $200 pool someone bought for me. I'm on disability I'm 5' and it's hard for me to get around especially one side sits up higher to vacuum manually to waste and it's literally killed me and my back from extending pole to bending down on my deck and trying to fish in all the debris that had fallen in prior to being able to use my auto vacuum which does a pretty decent job the generic kreepy Krawller and use leaf basket with it. I don't know what to do at this point. I'm gonna go drain some water and thinking possibly vacuum but probably need to reverse this and try to vacuum to waste first. Another issue that's not easy done as the water goes out quickly but I have very low water pressure & literally took a solid week to fill my pool. I can't barely get around or the Auto barely makes one round to pool gets to its min full line area. What size is your pool? You just decided to put to whole scoops of this in? Please any suggestions and sorry long review here. But so feel your frustration & SOME!!Tell your spouse to get his glasses and put up. Lol your funny. I can't believe he's gone that long not missing them lol. Thanks

Everyone watching. A few things you must consider for safety. Many of these 7:1 or multifunction products contain chlorine with cyanauric acid. The product being used is Cal-Hypo. This has an effect on the pH of the water that will cause it to rise. It’s 56% chlorine vs. liquid pool shock which is 13%. The issue why a pool is green is due to algae (not enough chlorine initially.) This means there was a lack of residual sanitizer. Testing should be done before adding products because. “What we don’t know” can seriously hurt you. Something else to note is that, phosphates feed algae. Typically, a flock of flocculant is a wise idea when the pool looks like that. You also have to brush your pool regularly. @poolenvy

I can't stand pools. I've had them at 2 of my houses and they are more trouble and expense than they are worth. Fun and new at first. The wife just HAD to have it. No one uses it 9 months out of the year yet you still have to maintain it year round. Build a deck, pass on the pool.

You shouldn't use Walmart chems in a pool. Cheap products!

Thanks for that l am off to Bunnings to get one

Bet the husband love how you disrespect him in a public forum.
