I had been gone for about 13 days, and came home to algae bloom under plastic solar cover. Poured in 5.7 gal. of 6% kmart bleach, and ran pump for about 36 hours using trichlor pucks in a puck tower. All nice and clear now.


WalMart AquaChem drop test kit. FIBERGLASS IG POOL. NorthEast Florida.

Tested yesterday, 14 May.

Ph = 7.9
CA = didn't check
Chlorine was off the scale, so dark a yellow, it was almost brown.



Todays readings:
Alk = 140
Ph = 7.9
CA = over 100
FC = 7.0

Where do I go from here? Thanks! You folks are wonderful.
