    Default Re: bleach doses and algae

    Thanks.

    I had the water tested for the stabilizer and it went to 100 that's there max. I got the strips and it was over 250. Here in SW Florida we have had large down pours the last two days in the evening and with the chlorinator turned off all this time and using the bleach instead it has actually come down some. As of this morning it was down to around 100. I have a test kit but it does not test for cyanuric acid. Thanks for the help. I've been doing this pool for so long I can tell by the look of it when it's not right and it has a way to go yet the water looks like a sheet of glass not sparkling like
    it should be.

    Thanks again. Karen
