A few days ago I did a partial drain on my pool to lower my CYA levels. The CYA level was about 100 PPM. After the partial drain and refill, I added quite a bit of bleach and tested the water the following day and got the following results:
CYA = 35
FC = 3.6-3.8
CC = 0
PH = 7.5
TA = 70
CH = 90-100
I added calcium chloride to bring the CH up and I added sodium bicarbonate to bring the TA up. I also added 121 oz of 8.25 % bleach. I ran the filter most of yesterday and through the night. The sodium bicarbonate made my pool extremely cloudy.
Today my chemicals are as follows:
FC = 5.0 PPM
CC = 0
PH = 7.5
TA = 90
CH = 190-200
I think these are good numbers, but my water is still extremely cloudy. I am assuming that this is from the sodium bicarbonate and the cloudiness will dissipate over time, but I just want to check here to make sure.
My pool is roughly between 20000 - 21250 gallons.
Should I adjust anything or just give it time?
