Anyone open open pools on the east side? Or own a above ground pool

It appears to be hooked up correctly.... I am almost certain it may be your valve in side (on top of the sand tank) that may need to be replaced??? I had the same issue you are referring too-
 
When did you shock it? I would give it 24 hours to let the chlorine calm down. And I hope you used regular chlorine bleach to shock it and didn't pay $5+ a gallon for 'shock'.

I am going to be doing an engine swap but I can swing by after I finish it up this evening.

I shocked it around 3 pm yesterday and I threw another gallon of shock in there like 20 minutes ago. And last night around 12:00 am I put 3 gallons of chlorine.

I should be home when your done doing your engine swap. my cell is 586-360-6455 hit me up.

Should I leave the filter running while I leave to go to work or wait on one of you guys to check it out?

True but if it has been a while and with sitting over the winter that shit in there can get really packed and not allow the circulation of water to flow threw causing his issue. I change mine every year, what is it like $5 bucks a bag? Plus it really helps with keeping the pool PH under control! Most common mistake with pools being cloudy is nasty filter sand!

Well, if it draining out your pool I wouldn't keep it on unless you want to exchange some of the water out of the pool. If you change the valve from test to filter, the water issue should stop.

We have to disconnect the tanks and drain the water out of the sand tank... And pop the top and dump the sand... Fill it up... Backwash it... Then filter it...
