To do so safely drain it and start over. You should get a water testing kit. It could be kids are peeing in the pool the ammonia build up can make it cloudy.
Get something called Super Sequest. Pour the whole bottle in the pool. Run the filter for about 1 week. Do not add chlorine until the water is clear. The Super Sequest will oxidize the chlorine and waste it.
Filter the water for a minimum 12 - 15 hrs. add the rec. of conditioner and chlor. in no particular order.
Not so much the pool or the water but it will plug the filter in no time at all thus reducing the quality of the water and the chlorine levels.
And the store did not tell you to add chlorine????
If you use a test kit and your chlorine level is high I would say no, let the filter run and while the filter is running vacuum the bottom of the pool to remove some of the mud off the bottom of the pool floor and check the filter for high pressue, so the filter can do its job and get the pool clean. You want to keep your chlorine level above normal during the cleaning level so when the pool is clean your are ready to use it, also I do not know how brown or muddy the water is.
The weather changes at night by getting dark or very cloudy when we are asleep. But in the early morning there is due on the ground .But after in the middle of day the due is gone and the grass is green THE END.
Unhook battery ground, get under car with the two correct wrenches and remove the filter. Drain gas into a pan( not a lot gets out). Install new filter.
First of all increase the chlorine to the max Then add algaecide and scrub the sides and bottom of the pool with a stiff brush, this will loosen of the algae that is growing on the pool surfaces. Let the water circulate for a while cast a flocculate over the surface of the pool. turn the pump of for two days and set the filter to waste. after two days you will note that the water has cleared up and there is a layer of sludge at the bottom of the pool. Gently vacuum this to waste ( do not try to filter it) when its all gone set the system to filter and top up the pool. repeat if necessary.
Chlorine level in an 18' above ground pool should be between 2 and 4.
