    Default Re: use of liquid chlorine in AG vinyl lined pool

    i brought home 4 big jugs ( 1.42 gal ) of walmart brand bleach, 4 lbs of borax, and 4 lbs of baking soda. i poured 1.42 gal of bleach in last night and showed around 1.5 FC this morning. i tested today after work and show 0 FC...

    ran a set of test's and heres what i got. watermom is correct i have a taylor K2005.

    FC 0
    TC 1
    CC 0
    PH under 70 ( appears to be a shade under ) base demand test was 6 drops.
    ALK 70
    CYA doesnt even go over 100 before the black dot disappears. the level is around half way between the bottom of the tube and 100. i tested CYA a few days back and it was around 70-80 and i have not drained off any water, or added stabilizer ( we have been getting rain ). i did the test twice today just to make sure i didnt mess it up the first time.

    my pool is 18ft round AG with a vinyl liner. approx 7,500 gallons. pump is ( i think ) 1.5 HP on low, and 2 HP on high. filter is a waterway proclean 125 sq ft.

    my pool is currently blue, but very cloudy since i just killed off a bunch of algae.... my filter is only 1 year old but im wondering if i need a new one?
