White Cloudy Water - Twighlight Zone

[mbar]

I have used well water since I got my pool 7 years ago. I have learned how to control stains, and keep my water crystal clear. It can be done - and sometimes you live where the water that is trucked in is just as bad.

OK,

I tried the 2/1 Pool-distilled Chlorine ratio and my Free Chlorine is at 15ppm. I'm going to bring it up to 20ppm. (going to run to the store and pick up more Bleach!

I'll keep trying a little longer.

Should I remove the fountain in the pool?

Stick with it. Keep it at shock level and keep filtering and it will clear up.

You'll find it a lot easier when you get your test kit.

Just for those keeping score.

7/22/06-I've got my FC up to about 25. Checked it at 5pm and just now checked it at 10pm. The level has maintained.

Good, this will tell all - if the chlorine will stay, then all of the bad stuff is dead - then it will just have to filter out.

FC - 15,

**no-change in pool water.

If it went down that much, then it is defineatly fighting something. You probably needed to get up to 25 to really get it under attack. Consistancy is the key!
