Hello everyone.
I am getting ready to make myself look like a fool, but I am real good at doing just that.
I had an algae issue with my pool (in sig) and after finding this site and reading, I was able to clear it up. I got the pool to hold chlorine overnight with less than 1ppm loss and it was looking great. I went down south for a 5 days and I had my neighbor checking my numbers and chlorinating for me as needed. I got home and my water is white. No floating particles or anything. I pulled the filter to wash it and it was squeaky clean, minus the average 2 days use. I used his test kit to test my water since I do not have one yet and the numbers were spot on and yet the water is still white. I do fully intend on getting a test kit but am going to take the pool down in 3 weeks so we can move down South further, so kind of saving the money for now. By looking at the pics, is this fixable so I can get use out of it for 3 more weeks? If not, I'll just drain it and scrub it all up nice and clean now.
There is no slimy feeling at all on the sides or bottom or the ladder of the pool. I scrub it daily since the pool is so small. The water does not stink and does not burn the skin or leave it feeling bad at all.
Thanks in advance either way.
