Pool Still green after 20 gals of bleach...1st time post.

With an AG pool, usually you can just use your vacuum hose to siphon it out. If you tape the hose down, with the end in your pool adjusted to the level you want, it will break the siphon when it reaches that level.

Got the garden hose sophoning now. Gonna try vac hose with shop vac on it!!

[PoolDoc]

Uhh, no, don't do that. Shop vacs aren't made for sucking water out of pools.

Do you have just a plain pool vacuum hose (for hand vacuuming the pool)? Use that.

Should've been more specific. I used the shop vac to start the sophion on the larger diameter pool hose. Worked quite well.

Pool is now drained with only 12-15 inches left. I turned on the hose lastnite. This am it is about 1/2 full so between today and Monday I should be able to get it filled up.

I need some replied to my thread about my sand filter in that section please.

Thanks for the help we are gaining on it.

She's full and filtering over nite I will do the Taylor kit in am. The strips showed fc and tc still at top of the chart tonite. Cloudy water but I can see the bottom.

Monday numbers

FC 14
cc .5
TC 14.5
ph 7.0
alk 125
CYA 50-60

by the best guess I need to run 5-10 ppm
I need to shock 20 ppm
using cya table 60-90 to be safe.
Do I raise it to shock table now to lower cc?Water is cloudy with light green tint. Filtered over nite and have no intentions to turn off.
