Green Pool

[dmlloyd]

Okay, I checked my pool this morning and it is now a cloudy blue color. I backwashed again, and am going to brush the sides and bottom. and keep the filter going. Is there anything else I should be doing?

1. Add chlorine bleach -- plain 6% household bleach, 2 gallons at a time.

2. See if you can get the HTH 6-way kit at your Walmart (check availability)

3. If not, get a cheap OTO / phenol red kit, and tell us what you find. (pH & chlorine)

4. Order a K2006, but wait till Wednesday or after. The low cost suppliers are out of stock. (See the test kit info page in my sig.)
