You should run your pool for 6 - 8 hours per day. When the water temperature reaches above 80 degrees, you should run the system for 8 - 12 hours per day. 

You can save money on your electric bill by running your pool pump during non-peak hours when electricity costs the least. Contact your electric company and find out which hours are billed at peak rates and which are billed at non-peak rates, and then plan to run your pump during those hours.

Maintaining the right levels in your pool allows for a safe and healthy swimming environment. Not enough chlorine or chemicals can create a haven for bacteria and create unsanitary conditions. Too many chemicals can cause a harmful environment and dryness of skin, hair and eyes.

 There could be a few contributing factors that can lead to cloudy water. The most common causes are, inorganic contaminates, poor filtration, or possibly high pH and/or Alkalinity.

Inorganic contaminates can be anything from swimmers leaving behind sweat, shampoo and sun screen to birds and debris. 

Poor filtration is often caused by a dirty filter. A backwash and filter media replacement may  be needed, or the cartridges may need to be removed and cleaned.

High pH and Alkalinity can lead to cloudy water.  When pool water becomes out of balance it is necessary to make the proper adjustments. Regular testing of pool water and proper adjustments can help keep your pool water sparkling.
