Getting pool ready for 90-95 degree daytime highs this week here in E Tennessee. Would like to be swimming later this week. Last couple of days, ..I have been brushing walls, floor and steps.. vacuuming to waste and backwashing. General clean-up. Pool never covered or fully closed over winter months.
Here's where I am:
24ft round, AG
at 9am today
FC 18ppm
CC 0
TC 18
Ph 7.2 (may not be correct.. took reading with high FC)
TA 50
Stabilizer... almost none (pool was pretty green a few weeks ago.. started adding some bleach back then) Added about 1.5 lb of stabilizer granuals.
Last night I added enough bleach to bring to 18ppm.. reading was down to about 15ppm at 7am. (Sun starting to come up).. added another jug (182 ounces) of 6% bleach at 7am.. (above numbers at 9am)
Water looks clean.. but a little cloudy. I can see the bottom with no problem. No debris on floor. Presently running pump continuosly.. and checking about every 4 or 5 hrs. Also have a skimmer sock in the basket.
WHAT ELSE CAN I DO? ANY SUGGESTIONS?
