Greetings All:
I am having trouble getting a clear pool. It is green with algae. My pool is L-shaped 40,000 gallon with a vinyl liner and a sand filter. I have been shocking and testing it and here are the pool store test results:
Free chlorine: Over10ppm
TC: over 10ppm
combined chlorine 0.0 ppm
P.H. 8.2
Hardness 30 ppm
Alkalinity with stabilizer correction 118 ppm
CYA 75ppm
Tonight I added 1 gallon of muriatic acid and 8 (174 ounces) jugs of ultra bleach from Walmart. I also swept. PLease advise. I have seven more gallons of bleach. Should I add them? I live in hot ,humid northeast Texas.
Thanks for any help,
Jennifer
