So as like many im brand spanking new to kicking off a pool. I read through the pool school and im confused on the when to add each chemical or if im testing the right things, or maybe my tester is cheap.
Finally added the last amount of water today, and have the pump running. It's a 24ft round Bestway pool with about 15k gallons. I have these diving bugs i tried to skim out but i think they keep jumping back in.. so i threw 2lbs of shock x-tra in, and said you are on your own. Thinking i may need another lb. Will the chlorine get rid of them?
I did the testing strip and some of the colors seem off the chart , or maybe im just bad at matching the colors.. but based off my results, what else should i be doing ?
I have a pound of alkaplus powder i haven't added yet. Figured id ask the experts, and go cut my grass.
