You should not put chemicals in the pool while the vacuum is in. Put the chemicals in and give them a chance to work first. Then you can vacuum and backwash the filter as needed.

What chemicals do you use when someone throws up in the pool?

When someone vomits in a pool, you should shock the pool with chlorine to kill any bacteria or viruses present. Use a pool testing kit to check the chlorine levels and adjust as necessary to maintain a safe swimming environment. It's also important to follow the pool's specific cleaning and maintenance procedures to fully address the contamination.


How do you vacuum a Doughboy and where do you plug in the equipment?

In order to vacuumn the pool you must first put in the vacuum and the hose. You can siphon the air out of the hose by putting it in front of the return to dispace all air in the hose line. Then turn off the pump. Insert the end of the vacuum line either into the port at the bottom of the skimmer in the pool or remove the skimmer basket and insert it in the bottom of the skimmer. Then after the line is secure, turn on the pump motor. Your vacuum should be ready to use (manually) or run automatically if you have an automatic pool cleaner such as an Aquabug. If you have a slimline skimmer there is a port located just below the skimmer door it is used for the vac hose. After connecting the hose you put your skimmer lid down inside of skimmer and then you can turn on pump. By doing it this way you can let skimmer basket catch all large debries. This saves on having to backwash so much.


Are there any chemicals to find out who urinated in the pool?

Actually yes, there is. You'd have to go to a pool store, but there is something you can put in the water so if someone urinates the water turns a bright blue around them. Although irritating when someone is too lazy to urinate in the toilet and uses your pool that's on of the reasons why you have chlorine in your pool. I know how irritating it is when pool guest urinate in the pool. I tell all my pool guest I don't swim in your toilet, don't pee in my pool!


How do you remove algae when you can not backwash?

buy and add Pool Brite Super Floc (read the directions on the back and do what it says) and after a few hours all the stuff that's not supposed to be in the pool will rise to the top. let it clump up together and start by taking a bucket and scooping it out. one important thing though.DO NOT RUN THE FILTER AT ALL FOR A DAY OTHERWISE IT WILL NOT CLUMP TOGETHER. the next day sweep the pool and instead of backwashing and rinsing, put it to waste. hope this helps!

Should you put chemicals in your pool first or skim and vacuum first?

It is best to skim and vacuum your pool first, as this will remove any debris or dirt that has accumulated in the water. Once the pool is clean, you can then add the necessary chemicals. Skimming and vacuuming first ensures that the chemicals are distributed evenly and more effectively in the clean water.

How do I know the amount of swimming pool chemicals I need for my home swimming pool?

You will need to add an amount of chemicals that is proportional to the size of your pool. The containers of the chemicals should tell you how much to add for the size of pool you have.
