Thanks for the response and advise, i havent had a chance to add the 10 gal of bleach, due to the heavy rains in NJ. I bought an hth 3 way kit from walmart. They didnt have the 6 way. My results were clorine=0, ph=7. I also purchased an amonia kit from walmart. My pool registered 2.0. Please advise what my next step(s) should be. I am finished with the pool store, they told me they never heard of testing for amonia in a pool. Thanks in advance for any and all help that you can provide.
