Re: 7.2 vs >8.2 Grrrrrrrrrrr
Thanks Brent. I inherited the pool when I bought the house a year ago, it has an inline chlorinator that takes pucks, the previous owner used pucks adn the pool guy that oriented me used pucks, so, I've used pucks. I haven't used a puck yet since finding this site but the damage is done with CYA at 100+ from years of puck use. I'm considering a 50% water change, maybe at the end of the season though.
Now, did I kill the algae with the supershock addition? Was I just pissing in the wind adding 10ppm every 4-6 hours. I added around 16 gallons of bleach over a 3 day period, only improvement I saw was the last 3 gallon addition which seemed to clear it up. Perhaps patience is a bad thing, and an aggressive superchlorination one time is the answer?
Anyways, my sand filter isn't too effective at filtering algae, alive or dead. Recommendations for removing the cloudiness now? I'm thinking of letting it settle to the bottom then vac to waste, seems to have worked the best in the past. Recent rainfall has given me the extra volume I need to send it to waste.
