Thanks for taking the time to read this.
I'm new to TFB and new to owning a pool. I bought a house with a 10000 gallon above ground pool that's been a nightmare. The water was clear for short time when I first moved in but then went on vacation for a week and when I came back it was swamp green and you couldn't see anymore than a few inches deep. These were my test results.
FC - 0
pH - 7.4
TA - 60
CYA - 70
I've tried raising my FC up by dumping in both bleach(540 oz) and using store bought shock from sams(10x1lb bags) but the number doesn't budge above 3 and the water has turned from a cloudy dark green to a cloudy blue. I've now converted to the intex SWG, and the BBB method to hopefully help things out. I added salt, baking soda for the TA, and borax to bring up the PH.
These were my test results after
FC - 2.0
pH - 7.5
TA - 100
CYA - 70
Salt - 2500
I need some serious help with this!!
