How do you know if you have Cryptosporidium in your salt water pool?
The symptoms would be that someone or all who use the pool would come down with diarrhea. It is passed on from person to person. One who has experienced or has diarrhea should not use the pool. Bring the chloine levels to break-strength levels -- 10.0 ppm and keep everyone out of the pool for at least 24 to 36 hrs. The filter should be opened, if D.E. or Cartridge, filter elements should be hosed off and chlorine washed, the internal parts of the tank and pump should be sanitized as well as the plumbing (as best you can). Assemble the filter tank without the elements and after starting circulation dispense chlorine directly into the skimmer to flush all lines. Then you may reassemble the elements in the filter and charge the D.E. filter with proper amount of DE. Run the system 24/7. When the chlorine level is down to about 5.0 ppm you may resume normal operation and use of the pool. With sand filter - back wash and rinse - then flush as above without disassembling the filter. The person or child with diarrhea should be kept out of the pool until all symptoms of the ailment is gone. k

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.
How do you chlorinate your pool with a sand filter?
Yes, if the sand in the "sand filter" is dirty. Clean water from the pool passes over the dirty sand bed in the filter thus reducing the amount of chlorine in the water. If it is sand from the beach or surrounding landscape - the answer is also yes because it is adding contaminants to the pool water. Anything that comes in contact with the water reduces sanitizer levels including the sun, wind, humans, pets, ducks, dust, pollen, cosmetics, under arm deodorants and on and on. Ken
