I have algae in my above the ground 5000 pool. I've purchased the Taylor TF-100 test kit, a vacuum, and new filters and I thought I was going to SLAM the pool, but the CYA was over 100 and I followed the advise of your site and just drained the pool. It's almost drained (30 hours and still going).
What bleach ratio solution should I use to scrub the sides and bottom of the pool?
Or could I just fill it up and would a shock level of FC kill what is on the walls and sides. Would this be starting the algae cycle over again? The algae is stuck on the steps and rungs of the ladder - it's gross.
I'd rather do it right instead of getting algae again.
Thanks,
Ashley
