Pool Care

Cloudy Water

Cloudy swimming pool water can result from one of several factors:

• the pH is too high;
• the total alkalinity level is too high;
• the stabilizer level is too high;
• the chlorine level is too low;
• the calcium hardness level is too high;
• the level of total dissolved solids is too high;
• there are high levels of metals (discoloured pool water);
• there is a lot of pool algae growth;
• the filter needs cleaning or servicing;
• there is a large quantity of microscopic particles in the pool water.

By testing and correcting the above, the cloudy pool water problem should disappear.
