I have tried chlorine, clarifier, aglicide, and even a new filter and pump and it wont go away. My pump has been running for 7 days now and no improvement. Should I empty it and try again? I need the pool clean for a party in 12 days.

Open Question: Should we empty the pool or clean the green water?

May 31st, 2010 admin No comments

We have an above ground pool. To make the story short we did not close the pool for the winter and the pump froze with the nasty snow storms we had. Now the water is completely green, mosquitoes, worms, etc…. Absolutely disgusting. I feel it should be completely drained but my husband thinks we can get it clean….. We have called different pool companies to come and fix it and they are either out of their “servicing zones” or don’t service the pools unless you bought it through them.
I can’t imagine it being safe to swim even if the water is clean and clear and all the levels are where they are supposed to be. Any advice?
