1. Shock the pool and leave for a couple of days. Yes, you CAN do this. (By the time you are ready to use these pool chemicals will have dissapeared)2. When green starts to clear up, allow the water to go through filtering system with chlorinator switched off. (As you have shocked the pool there is no need for this to be on). I ran this for about 12 hours. You need to keep an eye on the filter. I had to clean (backwash) my sand filter often in these 12 hours. 3. When you are happy with the clarity of the water, run system as you normally would. My pool is pristine.
