I have been battling my pool for three weeks or maybe longer. i have used lots of bleach, but it remains cloudy. the readings at the pool store today were: FC 3.9; TC 4.4;CC 0.4;ph 7.9;hardness 10 ppm ;alkalinity 139;cya 70; phosphate 1000. the pool store advised me to (1)add 5lbs of ph plus over pool and wait 2 hrs;(2) broadcast 10 lbs of alum over pool, let pool run for 3-4 hours and then shut pool for 24-36 hours(3) vaccum and refill pool to replace water lost by vacumming. i think the ph is already slightly high so i can't see adding ph plus. also i haven't read any posts on this forum regarding aluminum sulfate. i have added bleach all last week,and stll had a cloudy poolthough it did kill some of the algae. it has been very humid in northeast texas, and also raining. i am very discouraged. thanks ,jennifer (my pool is 40k vinyl inground with a sand filter.)
