Cindy,

My first suggestion is to BUY A LOT OF BLEACH!!! I used around 75 bottles to do my conversion and there is NO WAY I would ever go back to Baquacil. I was like you, the first 2 years were fine. Then algae. I could not get rid of it. I spent anywhere from $200-$300/month buying canitizer, pink treat, shock, etc...and still had a pool full of algae. Plus, my water had a funny smell. Look at the pictures I posted in a thread below so you will know what you are in for. You need to go ahead and order Ben's kit, even if it takes several weeks to get it. You can use a kit from Wal-Mart until it arrives. You need to test your bleach 3x a day in the beginning. I did morning, when I got home from work, and before bed. I kept my chlorine to 15 ppm. There are a lot of detailed instructions on how to proceed, just go stock up on generic unscented bleach. You will be so very thankful in about 2 weeks and will never go back to Baquacil again. You also need to download the bleach calc that Michael has put on here. It will help you determine just the right amounts of bleach and other chemicals to use. Good Luck! Keep us posted.
