My pool water is cloudy and Ive shocked it twice now What could I be doing wrong

Despite shocking your pool twice, if your water remains cloudy, there could be several reasons:

Insufficient Chlorine: While shocking the pool kills contaminants, it does not replenish chlorine levels. Ensure you maintain an appropriate chlorine concentration (2-4 ppm) for continuous disinfection.
High Cyanuric Acid (CYA) Levels: CYA stabilizes chlorine, but excess levels can hinder its effectiveness. Test your CYA and keep it below 50 ppm.
Organic Contamination: Contaminants like leaves, pollen, or body oils can cloud the water. Clean the pool regularly, use clarifying agents, and consider using an ozone generator.
Poor Filtration: A malfunctioning filter or insufficient pump power can prevent the removal of contaminants. Check your filter and ensure it's operating properly.
Incorrect pH Levels: High or low pH can affect chlorine effectiveness and cause cloudiness. Maintain a pH level between 7.2 and 7.8.

If these measures don't resolve the issue, consider seeking professional assistance from a pool service company.

Why is my pool water still cloudy after shocking? - Insufficient chlorine, high CYA, organic contamination, poor filtration, or incorrect pH levels could be the cause.
How often should I shock my pool? - Once a week during peak usage or when there's heavy bather load.
What is the ideal chlorine level for a pool? - 2-4 ppm.
What is cyanuric acid and why is it important? - CYA stabilizes chlorine, but excess levels can reduce its effectiveness. Keep CYA below 50 ppm.
How do I prevent organic contamination in my pool? - Clean the pool regularly, use clarifying agents, and consider using an ozone generator.
