I just got some numbers.
CYA is approx. 70
Ph 7.8 or so
Chlorine 18-19 (I had dumped in 2 Dollar General jugs of bleach today)

I've never seen the Ph that high. I've never had to add acid. Just Borax.

I see that I do have an older jug of "dry acid" out there that I bought when I had my easy set pool for a couple of years before this above ground. Never used it. Just bought a Ph Up and Ph Down at that time thinking I'd need them.

Should I put some of the dry acid in or just wait till I get this cleaned up?

Its past swim season here (Iowa) so just needing to get it cleared up before closure which I'll probably wait to do till the end of the month when temps are consistently lower.

Of course I've also got leaves constantly falling in. Had to shut the filter off last night as I knew the skimmer would be getting plugged up with too many leaves if left unattended that long.

I can see the bottom of the pool but its really cloudy and generally green. The water looks fairly clear though when I take a sample to test.

The really bad news is I'm almost out of R-871 titration stuff.
I'll order some in the AM. Until that gets here I'm going to had to use some of the simpler (and old) kits I've got.
