    • @bubbas2710
      @bubbas2710 2 місяці тому

      I just did this myself, the water that comes out of your filter and is going back into your pool, you disconnect it from you pool and hook it up to the bucket that drains back into your pool. I used my step ladder with a piece of board on it to have the bucket sit on. It really does work just takes some time. I just got my 1 year old a 12 foot round 30 inch deep Intex pool for his first bday and it took me around 24 hours to clear the water up. Helpful tip I stopped it about every 4 hours and cleaned the filter off, I did have to move the bucket to the ground while doing this or you'll start draining the iron in the bucket back into the pool. It's also a good time to drain out the bucket and hook your filter back up, let it run for a min before sitting back up bc it will also push out some iron upon starting back up..hope this helped some good luck

    One more thing. I went to Walmart for the stuffing and it was cheaper to buy pillows (on sale, $4) than bags of it. My in-ground pool holds 20,000 gallons and I used two pillows. 48 hours from not being able to see the drain in the deep end to crystal clear. Amazing!

    Great idea and it works. It occurred to me that it would be a better idea to rig the bucket with a hose thread fitting and filter the incoming well water before it gets in the pool. Otherwise you still have sediment that settles on the pool floor. You either have to vacuum that out or keep sweeping it and stir it into the water and keep the filter going and repeat until it’s clear. Makes more sense to stop it at the source.
