Will this product clear up well water? I filled up my pool for the first time at my BF's home and the next day the water was green. Freaked out!

I do not have well water, however this product does a wonderful job on my pool and I would highly suggest to buy this product. 1 tab per week with chlorine tab for a 1500 gallon pool. Stays perfectly clear and non slimy. My pool is in the direct sun. Hope this helps.

You will need to get a water sample and get the chemicals right 1st. Once in balance (Chlorine, PH, etc), Clear balance will help to keep it in Balance. We also use well water and have no problems. We've used this product for years and it works great. Hope that helps.

No never had an issue could be from your water, if it is hard, minerals, use a bottle of drinking water see if that clears it.

It left a blue ring (not big) in my brine tank. We are on a well with really problematic water so I am glad to have found the product because nobody carried it locally. Sorry I can't be of more help. Good luck to you!

No it is clear, has an odder but works real well on well water. So thankful I found it have found nothing better.

No, I don't think it's normal. Mine was clear first time. My guess is, if you use cloudy water, there is a leak there somewhere, most likely to be the filter elements or the plugs(holes - if you use 2 elements instead of 4) not tight enough. If you use clear water then I'm not sure...if you didn't clean the elements and primed them then may be dusts would have got int there and make it cloudy...I hope this helps

I added to distiller. Mom added to fresh well water. In both cases it turned the water an orangey brown color. In both cases the water tasted awful. Neither of us had any results from this product. I do NOT recommend this product. We both have had and continue to have good results from Cell Food by Lumina Health.

Yes...our pool has constant debris from the woods that we live in and this stuff is absolutely great for our pool. Some people may not have as much organic material to deal with and may not have such raving reviews about this product, but our pool seems to like it!! You do have to vaccuum a couple of times a week though until your pool is clear.

Maybe. We had a MAJOR algae infestation after a lengthy vacation away last year. I didn't want to drain and refill, so I gave it a try. After about 24 hours, it looked as though it may have helped, but I was never able to reclaim the pool that year. I have used other algaecide since then as a weekly preventative measure, and haven't had a problem this year yet. If your using it for preventative maintenance only, something cheaper would be sufficient in my opinion. Hope that helps!

Mine cleared in just about a day, a lot of the foamy sludge ended up in the filter which I cleaned twice in that time period.other than that the sand had been great,can't wait to fill my 90 gallon.

Not to be insulting,but there is another way to tell it's on,your water will clear up. Depending on the size of the tank,(mine is in a 20gal.tall),it took 3 days to clear it up.

Iam on a well system, water was checked before i installed this system, all my readings were satisfactory at that time, The filter system was really old so i just updated to this system.i have not checked the water now.

It will if you add too much to your pool. It does go away. I find it works better for me if I use the whole bottle I do not have any algae problem. My pool is a play pool so is shallow and has not dropped in temp below 88 degrees all summer. This was causing me grief with algae until I used black algae killer. Try adjusting how much you are using.

Mine was the same and caused me much concern at first. Just brush off the filters and wait until they become saturated. Within a couple days mine sped up to where it will now fill the reservoir within four hours or so. Been using it for a year now with no problems and am completely satisfied.

It takes quite a while for the bacteria to build up in the filter. Said it was important to not change out all media in the filter at the same time. I used Prime that removes chlorine when I do water changes. Also use Stress Plus in the tank and All Gone in my filter. My tank stays extremely clear and I have happy fish.

I have this pool and used well water, Never had a problem. Was just scared using 15000 gal. would be to much for my well

Yes, I see the buildup on my own unit. That is what the unit was designed to remove from the water. If you want to find out what it is, send a sample to a Water Testing Laboratory.

R Adams - my well water tends to turn my hair a reddish or orange-ish tint rather than green, but I would definitely give this product a try. It is far, far superior to any other blonde-hair shampoo I've tried. It seems to be a deep-cleansing/clarifying shampoo, yet it is NOT drying -- so I'd give it a try. Also try the Malibu C weekly treatment, I bet that would work for you. Good luck!
