Re: Baquacil to Chlorine - something wrong
Thanks for all of your help, so far so good. This is what is going on now.
After backwashing this morning, i added 12 pounds of alkalinity increaser at 9 AM, I then added 10 more at noon. I then added the stabilizer to the skimmer(before reading your post not to).
At about 2 PM I added 1 gallon of 5.25% bleach.
At 8 PM I reran all tests using a test kit.
Below are the results.
FC - 5
TC - 5
PH 7.2
Alk - 180 (just added today, 24 pounds)
Calcium Harndess of 90
CYA 33.
The water is very clear, but still has a green tint to it.
After rerunning the tests I have added 5 more gallons of 5.25% bleach.
The pump has been running 24 hours a day.
Is their anything else I should be doing at this point? Should I be adding more bleach, and if not when do I know that I should. I also have my autochlorinator feeding 3" tablets.
One other thing.
I have an automatic cover to cover the pool. It has been open while I have been doing all of this as the bleach would bother it. Would it be better if I kept it closed after the bleach circulates?
Thanks for any help
