If it is structurally safe to empty the pool (consider type of pool, ground water level etc - check with a Pool Service) sure it can be emptied and refilled. That's probably the best way to clean up the pool walls etc and star with fresh water. Add salt and connect the Saline System and you'll have the best pool water in town. If you cannot empty the pool, you need adjust pH to correct range and treat with chlorine (check dosage wih Pool Shop or Pool Service Co) and vacuum - probably best to vacuum to waste, not into your filter. You also need to have the filter stripped down and checked out.

If your pool is that green then it may be easiest to drain, clean and start fresh.

Be carful draing a pool in the winter as high water tables could push the pool up out of the ground like floating a barge.

If you opened your inground pool 5 days ago and the water is still green and cloudy after you put in Shock Scale control and algae control how long should you wait before putting in more shock?

Look on your shock package. It will say how long to wait. I believe the brand I use you have to wait 48 hours. Have you cleaned the filter lately? 2 or 3 hrs run time on the filter is not enough.
