I have a 19,000 gallon in-ground. Salt water. I threw the hose in on Friday and left for vacation. Came home today, Tuesday, to an over flowing greenish brownish pool. I don't even know where to start. My water is very hard. Salt registered at around 1500. What do I do first? I tossed in 8...

I've used chlorine gallons 10% in my pool for 4 year now. 25,000-30,000 gallon pool. I was doing a gallon every other day to keep my pool around 3-4...if I remember correctly from the previous years. My husband thought it was too expensive and switched to Trichlor tablets in 2 floaters this...

We are kinda green in the deep end, haven't vacuumed yet. Only thing we've put in is liquid chlorine yesterday (maybe a bit too much as we didn't have the CYA stuff to test that until this morning).....but we had such a horrid algae issue last summer that lasted from June through the beginning...

12% liquid chlorine in his pool at one time...is this ok? He has an inground gunite 35000 gallons. I took my tf100 over there yesterday and his CYA was at 100....FC was 0 His water is cloudy and this is why the pool store told him to dump 56 gallons in at one time....I mean, I have probably used...

So I want to keep my FC around 6. At night when I add my bleach do I just add enough to get it back to 6 or a little more so it never goes below 6? How do I figure this out? My pool is in full sun and loses on avg 3-4 ppm per day.

About how many Ppm's does a balanced pool lose in a day? I'm just wondering about how many jugs of bleach I will need to keep on hand once I get my pool all situated! My pool is 27k in full sun and will have maybe 4 kids swimming a few hours a day.....

How can i tell the difference? Right now I am battling a nasty case of cloudy water and am a little nervous that if it is Mustard, I won't be bringing up the shock high enough. Currently with my 27k, CYA 50, I am shocking at 20-23 ppm since Saturday. Today was the first day in a looooong time...

So here are my results of my very very milky white cloudy dull water :( FC: 2 CC: .25 TC: 2.25 TA: 150 CH: 490 PH: 7.2 CYA: 50 What do I do first? I have about 3.5 gallons of Clorox 6% on hand. Going to Sam's in a minute to get more. How much should I buy? Anything else I need while I am out...

I have this test kit. I am confused about whether this test kit will do all that I need it to do...In the instructions in the kit, it only tells me how to check for FC, CC, Ph, and total alkalinity and acid demand (is this CYA?) Is this all I need or should I order the one of the others?
