Pool has been open for three weeks. First two weeks, everything was very well balanced, chemicals holding, and water crystal clear. We had been running pump 24/7 during this time. At the start of week 3 (last Friday night) we turned the pump timer on, which turns the pump off overnight. We woke the next day to a very foggy pool. It got a little better as the week went on (resumed running it 24/7), but is even worse this morning. Last night we ran pool math and added 1.5 gallons of shock. This morning, our chlorine is low again.
This morning's readings are:
FC 0.5
CC 2.5
TC 3.5
CYA 0
Ph 7.2
TA 100
CH 100
72 degrees
Extremely cloudy; can't see bottom of deep end.
Last year we had consistently very high CYA (we converted from baquacil to chlorine last June), so we're gun shy on adding too much, but clearly we need to get over that. I think we are not done shocking the pool, but want to get some input before we do anything more.
