How do you remove iron from your pool water?

Answer 1

Add the well water, they sell a chemical that removes minerals after you fill it.

When filling pool with well water, I put a thick white sock over end of garden hose. I also have a filter on my well pump and the sock helped tremendously! I was told to do this by the pool store clerk where I take my start up water sample. Much easier to maintain this year after start up.

I have a well with very high iron content. I've tried cartrige filters they didn't work. Made the water real clear. But if you add bleach to your wash, you will have nice looking red socks that use to be white. I have found that a sand filter will clean the rust form my well water. No more red socks for me unless they are store bought. Anyway my sand filter is a concrete box with two resivores one for clean water the other for the rusty stuff. I have two pumps one to pump the dirty water in the other to pump the clean water out. The dirty water side has two tons of sand and gravel that I picked up a the concrete place in the town near me. About a half a ton of small pea size smooth gravel in the bottom and ton and a half of sand on top of that. The berrier wall has 5 small holes about six inches from the bottom. Dirty water goes in on top through the sand, through the gravel, and out the holes to make clean water. The sand and gravel cost me about $45. and I had to haul it my self. You could make a smaller version out of a 55 gallon barrol and a little sand and gravel. But If your looking to fill your pool, Plan on a lot of work to do it this way. Sorry, If That didn't help much.

Answer 2

add a quart of metal out or something similar to it and run continuously for 24 hrs . It wont get it all out but it will lessen its effects/ Be sure to always add water through the skimmer when adding well water to a pool. That way it goes through the system to help elimanate hard water metals first before its sent into the pool
