We just installed a new vinyl inground pool, 25,000 gallons. Water sat for about a week before we could get pump started yesterday. Was very cloudy and can't tell if algae starting on floor and walls or sand in pool from back fill. Vaccuumed yesterday but couldn't get it all. It is definately a film. You can see where you vacuum/brush. Will brush into "piles". I am off to vacuum again.
Chemicals -
I have added 104oz of bleach, Shock'nSwim, 32oz dichlor and 4 pounds of stabilizer.
Today test results are:
TC 8.6
CC 0
pH 7.8
TA 310
CYA 20 (but just added yesterday, so won't totally show up yet, right?)
CH 420
What should I do now? Water is much less cloudy this morning. Our water is HARD here, so that didn't surprise me. What should I do about the TA?
