Order of adding chemicals - question

[rannrich]

one more question, if the pool had been green and stabilizer was added first what problems might have occurred?

Luckily I have been adding lots of bleach but it was disappearing quickly so I added stabilizer last night.

Thanks Again,
Renee

No problems. Having added stabilizer just means that your needed chlorine levels will be higher since there is a correlation between the two. (You can read about it in the Best Guess Chlorine Chart in my signature below.)

Thanks watermom. I have done just that and all my numbers are fine but I was wondering why the pool turned cloudy - pretty sure I found the answer in another thread, pollen. I put the sock on and with in an hour I had to rinse it off. Getting ready to head out again, hopefully this will clear up soon.

That very well could be. Those skimmer socks will catch a lot of the small stuff.
