    I have been keeping the ph down in the normal range and the cl up to 15ppm for several days now. What a vicious cycle that is. It is finally starting to clear up....very slowly........ I never thought it would take this long to get clear. Thanks for all of the advice on clearing it up, I hope its completely cleaned up soon.

    We are so happy to finally be swiming in our pool. Thank you for your help. Is there anything I need to know about switching the the BBB "system" How often can I expect to be adding bleach?
    Thanks!!!

    Typically every day or two depending on your pool. Some people who have higher cya readings, can go a little longer between doses. I test and add a couple of quarts every evening. It takes me no more than 3-4 minutes.
