Hi All! My DH decided he wanted to use pool store Crud this year……for the last 3 summers he was traveling and I followed all advice here and had a stunning crystal clear pool.
Needless to say, our CYA was over 100. after showing him this forum and some posts, he finally agreed to stop using that junk! So back at it I went. Pool developed algae and now is super cloudy. I drained about 1/3 of the pool and got CYA down to 70. We are approaching the end of the season so I thought that would be ok…….
Here are my numbers as of this morning…..
FC 15
CC .5
TA 110
PH 8.2
CH 25
For the last few days, I’ve been doing SLAM but worried that an FC of 28 based on CYA is too much and I think PH is high due to high FC NUMBERS
Im not sure what to do? I’d rather not dump more water. Should I continue SLAM or lower ph or both? I’m at a loss and he is less confident once again. Please advise!
