New here, new to pools.. help/info?

I've seen some miracles happen here, so just listen to the advise they give and you will be swimming in no time. The bleach won't hurt your liner (it's just chlorine) and you are going to have to do quite a bit of backwashing the filter in the beginning, but like they said, you need to get the water tested so they can give you some more specific advise on where to go from here.

Ok, went to the pool shop (Leslie's pool supplies) today to test water. They tried to tell me about 4 different products as I imagined. Anyways, here are the results. (Before I put any bleach or anything)

Chlorine - 0
PH - 7.0
Total Alkalinity - 0
CYA - 50
Calcium Hardness - 70

Those are the only ones they gave me. (The pool is 48" tall, forgot to mention that) So do I go ahead and run the pump+filter and add the 2gal of bleach? (Also the bottles I bought are 1.4gal, would it be okay to pour 2 of these in?) Thanks again for all the information and time.

You can use The Pool Calculator to calculate dosages, but you need to figure out your pool water volume first. 48" tall is 4 feet, but you didn't give the diameter of your pool. Also note that most bleach jugs are either 3/4 gallon (96 fluid ounces) or 1.5 gallons (192 fluid ounces) and not one gallon. Chlorinating liquid is usually sold by the gallon.
