yeah i have the same problem. just set the pull up yesterday with well water and shocked it then BAM! brown water. i'm just using 3 socks inside of each other on the outlet tube and the socks already turning brown from the iron. hopefully it works.
That’ll work. It will just take some time. If I was you I would plug one of the inlets to get better suction. That’s what I did with my homemade filter. The 2 inlets together don’t hardly have any suction. I actually took the t off and ran one hose to the inlet closest to the outlet hose. Keep cleaning the pool filter and those socks as much as possible. I’ve heard of people using socks. I just sped up the process with the poly filter. If your pool is as bigger than mine it’s going to take days to clear up. Let me know how it works out for you I’m kinda curious how long it’ll take with them socks. Good luck
@@ShinyKnife yeah from what i've seen it does take a a few days for the sock method. tomorrow morning i'm going to go out and clean the socks and the filter again. i cleaned the filter today and omg so much iron was in it. at least from now on when i top the pool off it will be with softened water. i'll let you know how long it takes. i got a few pictures if you want to take a look?
@@ShinyKnife oh yeah just one day was a night and day difference. still a little brown, sprayed all the rust off the filter and sock this morning. i've got to work on getting a pool vacuum...
@@Red_Scorpian awesome I’m glad it’s working out for you. You should have videoed the process and put it on your channel. I’m getting ready to review a pool vacuum in the coming days. It’s a stand alone rechargeable vacuum with a filter bag in it. You just put it in the pool and use it like a regular vacuum. I haven’t received it yet, but when I do I’ll put up a video up so stay tuned!
@@ShinyKnife i've taken pictures and will put something together tonight. i'd have all the metal out by now but i don't have a pool vacuum yet. so every day after rinsing the socks out and the filter i scrub the bottom to stir it up again, but's getting there. def way better then it was a few days ago.
That is an awesome video. Pool looks great and you don’t have to spend a fortune.
Appreciate it! That’s right, I didn’t spend a dime, just a little bit of time and stuff laying around the house
The filter that cleans the water is working good for you
Yes it is, Thanks for watching the video. Appreciate it!
You're like MacGayver......LOL
I’ll take that with high regards. MacGyver is one of favorite shows of all time, Appreciate you stopping by Valerie
