Hey All,
I have searched through the site regarding vacation scenarios and picked up some good information. Here is my situation.
We have been running the pool this season using the BBB method and it rocks! Primary care giver is my 11 year old son. My wife helps out with Muratic Acid if needed. I am working out of town for another few weeks and they are taking off for about 9 days.
The pool is on a timer with two 6 hour run sessions per day. It has a solar cover as well.
Current Levels are:
FC 5
PH 7.5
CH 270
TA 120
CYA 65
What would be a good way to keep the pool going while they are gone. I might get home around day 7 but not sure. I was thinking of having them take the pool to shock level and then put 3 of the 3inch Pucks we still have in the skimmer.
I could maybe have someone stop by and throw some bleach in and check the water level at the halfway point.
The good thing is I know we can snap it back into shape pretty easy. Current maint on a daily basis is about 40-60 ounces of Clorox.
Thanks for the input.
Phil
