Hi there,
My pool has been green for a few weeks now and working full time preventing me from rushing out to get some liquid chlorine, I added quite a bit of the ezichlor. I had my water tested yesterday and the reading showed very high chlorine so I was advised to not add any more as the stablier was also high . He sold me some algaeside 1 litre bottle (2pints approx). I was told to backwash, raise the PH which I did, I added the acid. I poured in half the bottle of algaeside and left the pool running for approx 10 hours. Pool is still very green and I feel it is not going away in a hurry. Oh and he told me to add the remaining bottle of algaeside today, which I have done. Ihave since read the algae advise on this web site and I know I should have done things differently. So, with what information I have given here, is there any advise? I really want to take control of this problem and not spend too much more money (needlessly) Many thanks.
