New to BBB. Need help getting my Arizona pool chemistry right.

1. Don't give away the PhosFree. Instead, order a Hach / AquaCheck Phosphate Test Kit from Amazon. Once you get it, start adding PhosFree doses VIA THE SKIMMER every 2 - 3 days. Test your water a day AFTER adding the PhosFree. Keep going till you show no phosphates. Doing so will make it MUCH easier to get rid of the 'green'. (You can order the kit, and the tape measure at the same time. I'll post a diagram of what to measure, later today.)

2. If your first phosphate test shows levels above 1000 ppb (1.0 ppm), let me know.

3. Keep your chlorine around 10 ppm, till the 'green' is gone.

4. Otherwise, your chem levels look good.

Upgraded membership and moved thread to the Chemistry Problem section. You may need to log out and back in to see everything.

PS.You can search use Google to search multiple pool sites, using Google's 'advanced search operators" to limit your search to specific sites. This page of mine will create the search links for you. Google knows my site -- and all the others -- much better than those sites internal search functions! And, if you need to post pictures -- of your pool, filter, pump, piping, what-not -- there are instructions on this page

Please note: the Super Search page does NOT search directly; it only CREATES special Google links, that enable a FOCUSED Google search!
