Everyone,
I'm new to the trouble free pool forums, but hoping to find some help in getting my pool cleared up.
My pool is blue, but cloudy. It has been this way for a few weeks now.. when I opened it, it was grass green and a mess! So the blue is better, but not all the way there.
This past Saturday night I put floc in the pool, waited 48 hours with no circulation, and it helped slightly. I can now see the bottom step of the ladder, but not clearly. I can just start to see the sweeper head in the bottom. I checked my water levels and everything seemed awfully low. So after sweeping, I turned the filter back on to get some chlorine back in the water.
I took samples of the water this afternoon.
Free Chlorine - 14.5
Combined Chlorine - 1.5
Ph - 7.2
CYA - 30
Alk. - 120
Calcium Hardness - 200
18x33 Oval, above ground, sandfilter.
What do I do now? Clarifier?
Thank you in advanced!
