I looked for a sticky on opening a pool for the first time but couldn't find exactly what I was looking for. My pool installation will be complete in a few hours and the water will start going in!! YAY! We have decided to use the BBB method. I have a 18x33 (54" deep) pool. How much liquid chlorine do I need to put in the pool? I have 4 gallons of it as of now. We got the liquid chlorine on sale. I see most people use household bleach? What is the difference? Isn't the liquid chlorine the same thing, just a higher concentration? Also, how much CYA do I need to put in? Do I add all the bleach and CYA at the same time? Do I do it as the pool is filling or when it is full? I suppose it will take about 2 days for it to fill up, I figured I should add some bleach as it is filling. Any help would be so greatly appreciated. Thank you so much! Steph
I will fill out my siggy once I know the exact details of my filter/pump and exact gallons. Thanks again!!
