yes, it is the 22' x 52' round. i know the intex site doesn't show that one. it was purchased thru walmart. it shows up on their site. even the salt water manual does not list this pool. so i guessed on how much salt to throw in. i believe we used 6 bags in the beginning. since then we have added 1 more bag. it says 10,500 gallons of water.

hubby started to drain the pool, so a lot of water was drained out. hence why i was thinking i need now to add more salt. however, i don't have the salt water system hooked up since last night. just the pump.

i have read so much that i am confused now on the chlorine/stabilizerr and ph levels, its just not funny.
i think if i have read right, that chlorine is bleach. which i poured in last night. and since it worked last time, i went ahead and threw in vit c tabs. i did not count them, just took a bunch, 10 or so? i did that this morning, it doesn't look any different.

the pool now is blue, but not crystal clear blue. not really what i would call cloudy either.

so, till that kit is ordered and arrives???? would a best guess be to add more bleach? add more salt and hook the system back up? i just don't even know which way to go now.

and that ph thing, is really confusing me. like i said the test strip shows a red, which is not even on the chart, so i really don't know if its too high. and if too high, to i add the stuff that lowers it? is that the acid or the baking soda, and does this then take away the bleach?

see i can talk myself in a circle. lol
