Ok...been reading threads and trying to decipher what I need to do. Second season with pool - first time problem.
18000 gallon vinyl pool
18'x40'x4' dimensions.
Sand filter running 24/7.
Had nasty rain for a few weeks and pool turned green. Added tons of Clorox, turned blue and stayed cloudy. Used shock granules (5 single serve bags, then 3 more 2 days later. No change in cloudiness. Still blue in color)
FC: .5 (have been adding 2-4 gallons clorox bleach nightly)
ph: 7.2 (had to add borax for the first time to raise it. 2 boxes over 4 days time and is hanging steady at 7.2)
TC: 2
TA: 130
Calcium Hardness: 120
CYA: slightly less than 30 - tube was filled to the top reading and not quite dissappearing black dot but almost.
Any suggestions? This forum is most appreciated!!!
