Hi and welcome!

I am not a pool installer and cannot comment on the lack of being level bit of your post, but maybe someone else will be able to. It might be a good idea to send some pictures for someone here to take a look at. You can send them to poolforum AT gmail DOT com. Reference the URL of this thread in your email.

Before having you spend money trying to clear up the pool, let's wait and see what the verdict is on how out of level your pool actually is. (If they can tell from pictures that is.) Then, we can talk about pool chemistry with you. In the meantime, do a lot of reading on the forum and also at our sister website www.poolsolutions.com.

If you don't have a good test kit, that is something you can go ahead and be getting. The one we recommend is the Taylor K-2006 or 2006C (same kit, larger bottle of some reagents). If you buy it through the Amazon link in my signature, the Pool Forum makes a little money on the sale which helps us keep this form online. Only buy if the seller is Amato Industries, however. Some other sellers are substituting the K-2005 which you do NOT want.

Again, welcome. Glad you found us!
