UPDATE: Pool is still a bit cloudy/green but I can see the bottom. Getting there.

UPDATE: POOL REFILLED AND CIRCULATED for 1/2 hour. FC 8 CC .6 pH 7.2 TA 120 CH 90 CYA <30 Temp 74 F Not sure about the exact CYA # since I filled the tube and could still see the dot although it wasn't perfectly clear. I entered the above #s into the pool math and got a shock value of 12. In...

Cool, thanks for the feedback. I wish it didn't fill so wretchedly slow. She's 7 and he's 3. The parents decided to move to Oregon so as a consolation we get them for 8 weeks over summer break. I almost feel bad for the rents 'cause these kids are gonna be spoiled rotten when they get them back...

I drained some water (1/4-1/3) out of the pool and am refilling now. BTW I work 2nd shift so my schedule is a bit wacky plus we've been trying to get the house kid proofed somewhat for the arrival of the grand-kids for the summer. So when posting is sporadic that's why. questions... Is it safe...

Test kit arrived today as I was heading to work. I'll test the pool tomorrow when I get up and post numbers. Pool is cloudy green, although not as bad as it was. I can see the fourth step now vs barely making out the second earlier this week. Something I've noticed is that my pressure gauge is...

Ordered the K-2006C 'cause I had to put it on my Amazon card. It should be here in a couple days. I'll update when I know more. Thanks.

Quick update: after reading some in Pool School I went out and redid the CYA test now that the sun is actually out. I got 60 and it repeated, do I need to still drain and top off the pool with fresh water?

CYA was one of the tests in the kit I bought. These are the chems I used. Shock: Sodium Hypochlorite 12.5%/ Inert 87.%% Algaecide:dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride 49.8% methyl benzyl ammonium chloride .2% other ingredients 50% I've had the pump running pretty much 24 hrs a day since Wed...

Hi, I'm attempting to get my pool in shape after inadvertently turning it into a pond last year. We bought the house last year and I didn't get the cover on before the leaves fell. I filled it up and started trying to get it in shape w/ advice from a pool store. 4 cases of shock, 3 Quarts 50%...
