Start with the water put the hose in with the stuffing. We started yesterday put the hose in with the stuffing and then when the pool was filled. Change the stuffing and then put the pool filer in the stuffing. In less than 24 hours my pool is crystal clear!

I used an rv water filter that screws on the end of hose. Worked perfect for me . The pool was crystal clear .

L79 greetings from a new friend watching from Hong Kong. Hello my dear amazing fam friends, this is definitely a brilliant idea how to make a crystal water to your amazing pool. Kudos to both you who done a great job. I’m impressed by your excellency and creativity. Thank you for having here , I’ve learned something new and very interesting to be done in the near future. Wishing you all a wonderful and blissful day! Sending love from Hong Kong.

Absolutely brilliant hack! Love it! We used to have a well high in iron and managanese…stained everything in the house until we had a filtration system on that was expensive! This is great! Excellent ingenuity friends!

I retired from the largest pool company in the world. When you use a well with iron in it you should always add a metal free product. It works wonders!

I love the bucket idea!

Yes the fiber also helps to

Sand filter with filter balls works Awsome and you can back was. Works just like pillow fill

That was awesome! Good to know. Our well has more lime, we will have to try it!

Thank you. Sending this to my husband

Great idea and it works. It occurred to me that it would be a better idea to rig the bucket with a hose thread fitting and filter the incoming well water before it gets in the pool. Otherwise you still have sediment that settles on the pool floor. You either have to vacuum that out or keep sweeping it and stir it into the water and keep the filter going and repeat until it’s clear. Makes more sense to stop it at the source.

So good swimming pool !

Very cool DIY here!!! ️ we used to have a 40,000 gal pool with 2 pumps on it and we were on well water. Maintaining that pool was such a pain we were glad to move because of it lol. I never thought about our well water causing the issue but now I know!!

Hi there, thanks for this. Why not filter it through the bucket system when you initially filled the pool?
