If you are refering to a white cloudiness, There are two reasons for this one is not enough sanitizer or chlorine it should be between 2.0-5.0. The other is poor circulation either your filter is dirty or worn out and not filtering enough. A commercial pool or multi family pool needs to circulate 24-7. A residential pool should circulate at least 8 hours a day in order to keep water healthy.The powder is formed from Alkalinity being to high. Alkalinity should be between 80-120 ppm and PH maintained around 7.2-7.6 ppm. Take a sample to your local pool dealer and they will tell you how to fix it.It is important to know how many gallons is in your pool Lengthxwidthxavg.depthx8 Kenny Kummer E.M. Systems
Any particles in your pool can cause cloudiness - for example, dead algae. To eliminate it, most pool stores sell a "clarifier" - the one I sell is blue - which will get the particles out of your pool, or "alum" or "floc", which will bind the particles together, making them heavier, dropping them down to the bottom of your pool. You can then vacuum them out with your filter set to waste.
If you have a DE filter, and you add a white powder to your skimmer sometimes, it is possible that your filter is leaking DE back into your pool and you need to replace the grids inside it.
Make sure the filter is working properly and not broken. Maintain a proper chemical level (sanitizer and water balance) and run your filter.
Cloudy water is among the most common pool problems, and the causes for it are extensive and varied.
It means it might have been dirty, but it depends on the situation.
Shock treatment for the green part. If it is still cloudy you can add a clarifier sold at your local pool supply.
If you just had your filers changed, then its just Bubbles (air) but if not then call your pool guy!!
The water in a pool can be cloudy because the chemicals are not balanced. If people wear sunscreen and go in the pool before it has soaked in it can also cause the water to become cloudy.

Phosphate buffers put in cloudy pools will clear it up. The buffer clears the pool by reducing CH levels.
Not likely, make sure all chemicals are balanced. If still cloudy, use a clarifier sold at pool stores.
Check the chemicals with a pool test kit sold at most stores like Walmart or Kmart or a pool store. It shows how to check for PH balance and Chlorine. You must keep your chemicals balanced or the water will get cloudy or worse, green.
algee
pump it out
an indication the chlorine is not working effectively.
It may kill the algae but the algae needs to be filtered or the pool will remain green and cloudy You need to dissolve the chlorine and pour around the pool then brush the pool in order to not damage your plaster. This will help get the chlorine throughout the pool.
Add clarifying chemicals and turn the pump back on.
