Update 9/15: I have a K2006 test kit and posted numbers on page 2
I have owned the home for less than a week. It is ~18k gallons with a new vinyl liner.
The pool became a swamp in the past couple weeks. I only have a 6 way test strip kit while I wait for Amazon to restock the good kits.
I have only treated with chlorine. I have been trying to SLAM the pool but only using bleach.
I am sorry I don't have all the previous results. Here is where I am at:
Hardness 250
TC2
FC2
PH 7.2
Alk 80
Stabalizer pretty near 0
I used 4 gallons of bleach 2 days ago, 4 gallons last night and I put in a gallon this morning. The pump has been running for ~2 days straight. I pulled out the filter which looks new and hosed all the gunk out of it this morning.
Someone please help.
I am heading to the store later. Can someone please tell me what to get and how much to use? I have read all the introductory threads about pool chemistry but to be honest, with this new house I have been tackling a thousand projects and my brain is turning to mush.
Thanks
