Hi, Mom,

You're off to a good start!! Your numbers look good and your water looks good.

Tell me what i need to do?
1. Get rid of the Turbo shock, pucks, and algae bomb
None of us will know for sure what it is and how much you put in.

2. Get a test kit that will let you test Cl levels of at least 20. You'll need it later.

3. You'll get the most help from this forum if you use Clorox for your Cl resource. You can get liquid Cl, if you can find it, or Cal Hypo but you need to quit using the pucks....your CYA will go too high

4. Read all the "pool tips" at poolsolutions.com. Then read and printout the info at http://www.deh.enr.state.nc.us/ehs/chem.htm#ta. Those two sites will provide you a wealth of info. Enjoy your pool!!
