I am battling a green pool issue. We are just now opening pool and it was treated 2 days ago with 4 bags of biogard burnout 35 as recommended by pool store.
It is showing some improvement but still green and milky. Went back to pool store for reading and now they say nitrates are at 10...not dangerous they say but said it will be uphill battle fighting algae. Said only way to truly correct is to empty and refill pool.
Any help or advice would be appreciated. Here is pool info and readings:
Inground pool. Vinyl, 32'x16'. Approx 14,000 gallons.
PH: 7.5:
TA: 114
Total chlorine: 3.1
Free chlorine: 0
Total hardness: 209
CYA: 40
