Hello,
We recently bought a home with a 12,000 gallon pool. So far I have not had any problems and I thought I was doing a fairly good job maintaining it. Recently the water was looking cloudy and I noticed what looked like some algae around the edges. It was only a little bit. I took a sample of water the the pool store and they said all my levels were within normal range. They did sell me a chlorine enhancer which is supposed to aid in the control of algae. Well I used it that day and shocked. This was about a week and a half ago and ever since then the chlorine level on strips and drops has been zero. I have shocked several times but it doesn't seem to lock the chlorine in. The water is still cloudy, it comes and goes. Some days it is not as cloudy as others. I also live in Tucson, AZ and right now it is Monsoon season. Lots of rain and wind. Could the weather be contributing? I thought you might be able to help with the chlorine enhancer situation because on the websites Tips actually tip # 44 is says if you've used one of these products and your chlorine has gone AWOL to e mail. So here I am. Please help. Thanks.
