    Question Guidance Needed to Close Pool

    Last year I closed my pool myself for the first time. The pool store sold me a "kit" had me dump everything in and shut down. Opened to a slimy green mess. This year I'd like to do it right! Here are my numbers:

    17,000 gal AG
    Water temp: 60*
    Water is clear
    FC: 0
    TC: 0
    pH: 8.1
    Alk: 166
    CYA: 29

    I added 1 gal of 12.5% chlorine since having my numbers checked this morning. I'm hoping to close the pool on Monday and need to know what I should be doing to prep.

    Thanks for all the help. This site is the greatest!
