Hey all. We recently moved into a house which has a pool (stats in sig). The pool has been covered for the entire winter and we are ready to remove the cover and set it up for the year. I took a water sample down to a local pool place and my stats are below. The water is also green from the little peak I did under the cover. I read the thread about the SLAM procedure, but it states that before you SLAM, that the pH must be up to speed first. With my pH being 8.3, I'm assuming acid needs to be added. How much do you guys suggest adding to bring the pH down? Anything else I need to do?
I also want to add that I haven't turned my pump on yet or done any sort of cleaning. The only time the pump has run since I've owned the house was when the freeze switch kicked in (below 35*).
