Pump stopped

[Staciewentz]

I just unplugged my pump to use the pool vacuum and one of the prongs came off of the cord. The problem is we are leaving on vacation in the morning and will be gone a week is there anything I can do to keep my pool from turning completely green?

My suggestion would be to go to the hardware store and get a new plug for the end of the cord. The other option would be to shock the pool with dichlor shock and stir the water up with the pool pole. I can’t guarantee it will stay clear but it will make it a few days with a decent chlorine level.
