About a month ago (prior to site crash/rebuild) I read a TON of information on B2B (Baquacil to Bleach).
It helped me a ton (i think), and i would love to have this resource available for all the other pool owners who are tired of spending Baqua-Bucks.
I have a 22K IG Vinyl Kidney-Bean. In the north east (NY)... And i will uncover the Baqua-Beast in a few weeks.
I plan on doing the following:
-adding 7 Jugs of 3quart jugs of bleach to get levels up to 15ppm
-testing the water in the morning, and adding more to get it up to 15ppm again
-testing at night, getting it to 15ppm, and doing this every day...
once the reading STAYS at 15ppm OVERNIGHT, i will:
-assume process of B2B is complete
-resume standard Bleach Treatment
- i expect my water to turn green, and for orange crud to come out of the water.
- i will use the EXISITING sand filter media until process is complete.
- I will vac to waste the crud, and backwash the filter many many times.
Questions:
Do i CARE about PH during the process?
Who wants to buy my old used Sand that has filtererd BaquaPoo for probably 5 years at least (we just bought house in fall)
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP! I'll try to post pics of the conversion process once its starts.
