On second thought I may just drain the pool and replace my cartridge. Now I am either having an allergic reaction to a chemical (or something) in this pool. I have never had an issue until recent but I am getting a rash after swimming in the pool. Although I have had 10 other people in this pool including my daughter and nobody else is having the issue. It is only an 8,000 gallon pool I would imagine draining and refilling would be much easier.

======================================

Hi, I have been using Baquacil (or the equivalent) for about 7 years now. I have had OK success with it but this year has been horrid. I had a clear pool for about 1 week and it was after I replaced, yet another, cartridge on my filter. I have 3 of them now in the past 1 1/2 years of our short eastern PA season. In the past 2 seasons it is rare that I have had a clear pool. I have actually had enough at this point and will be switching to chlorine. I actually may be draining my pool today and just replacing the cartridge and spraying everything down and refilling. I would seem that you also have a 8k-10k gallon pool. If you switch to chlorine, do your self a favor and just drain the pool.
