It is very effective but takes a lot of work. It is very important that you turn your pump off before administering the flocking agent. Follow the directions on the package and let your pool sit without the pump on for 24 hours. The small particles will all bind together and sink to the bottom of the pool. You then need to vacuum all the things that settled to waste. After that you need to let it settle for another 24 hours and do the same thing again. Anything that settles after that you can brush down and let your filter take care of it.

What is flocking a swimming pool that has cloudy water?

Flocking is adding a chemical that is almost sticky to the touch. Just ask your local pool store for a flocking agent. What it does is gathers the loose particles that are floating around in the pool and settles them to the bottom. It is very affective. First, set your filter valve to "recirculate" you don't want flocking agent to enter filter. Second, dilute flocking agent in water and try to blanket the pool surface as well as you can so when the flock settles it takes everything to the bottom. Run your pool for a couple of hours, then turn off your pump. Let it sit overnight. The next day, vacuum your pool to waste VERY slowly as to not kick up debris. I have done this a few times as I was introduced to this earlier this summer.


Will flocking hurt cartridge filter?

Flocking can potentially harm cartridge filters if the flocking material clogs the filter or if chemical additives in the flocking solution impact the filter's integrity. The fine particles from flocking may accumulate, reducing water flow and efficiency. To minimize risks, it's important to use flocking products that are compatible with your filtration system and to monitor the filter’s condition regularly after use. Regular maintenance and cleaning can help prevent any negative effects on the filter.
