Re: Unable to get any FC reading???
If your CYA level dropped over the winter, then if the FC had gotten to zero then soil bacteria in the pool could have converted some CYA into ammonia. That creates a huge chlorine demand upon opening and initially the added chlorine creates CC which is what you have been seeing. Keep adding chlorine until it starts to hold. It may take a lot. You can do a bucket test if you want to figure out roughly how much it will take where 1/4 teaspoon of 6% bleach in 2 gallons is 10 ppm FC. Technical details of what happens is in this post while my own personal experience with this is in described in this thread with a summary in this post.
