Questions -
What is your current sanitizer level?
Did you drain some of the pool at closing and refill with any fresh water?
Did you use any CDX product in your pool?

Is water cheap where you are?
If so, I would suggest draining about 2/3rds of the pool and refill with fresh water. The presence of CDX could potentially drag your conversion out for weeks. It’s up to you of course, but given the shortages in many areas with respect to liquid chlorine, you could be stuck with an unusable pool for weeks.
Yes,bleach does seem to be problematic right now, I will wait until I take the cover off n obsess the situation n go from there.Thank you for the input.
