I set up an 18' vinyl AGP in March and have been taking care of it with the help of pool school and the calculator. It's been pretty easy so far. Problem is, I get an itchy rash whenever I swim. Mostly on my face/neck/chest.
I did a shock and level a few days ago, just in case I had some funk growing, and brushed and scrubbed everything real good.
After swimming today... itchy again.
FC: 5
CC: 0
pH: 7.4
TA: 140
CYA: 50
I do rinse when I get out. I do not react this way to my tap water/shower (3-4ppm monochloramine!). It has to be something with the pool... or maybe it's just a heat/sun rash? Water is about 90 right now. I wear a big brimmed hat and a rash guard though. Thoughts?
