    Which ones to tackle first.

    Geez, I’m feeling defeated about now. Yesterday the water looked murky and you can tell something is wanting to get bad. I added my last gallon of bleach last night. This morning it looked a tad better but still not resolved. My numbers PH 7.2 FC 1.5 CC 1.5 TA 70 CYA 50 I did vacumn and it’s...

    Which ones to tackle first.

    Ok I retested without using the diluted method. My CYA is 50-60. More 50. So that was the problem. I just added the rest of the second gallon of bleach and I’ll see what it looks like tomorrow. On another note, algicide. I am still confused on which one to use. I know you all recommend just...

    Hmm I’m not sure how it jumped. In the past I couldn’t get correct readings for cya, so they advised me to add the little dropper to 7.5 with pool water, then fill to 15 with tap water. Shake/mix then squeeze out to keep 7.5. Then add the regiment till it’s at 15. Mix wait 30 seconds, shake and...

    I added the dry stabilizer according to pool math but I’m kind of thinking after re-reading these comments that I should have added some but not all, but to just get to 30. But it’s up, it’s 60.

    Which ones to tackle first.

    I added the dry stabilizer in a nylon stocking, the amount 5lbs according to pool math. I kept mushing it and it took a while, last bit dissolved late last night when I got home after I mushed it. (a good day and half). Last night I added a gallon of liquid chlorine. I went to 2 WMs last...

    Thank you. I did that. But it’s not exactly in front of the return pump. But near by. Thank you I was wondering when to check the numbers again.

    Should I wait until all the dry stabilizer is dissolved into the pool or just start with the liquid chlorine. I should definitely check the cya right?

    Yes I have TF- pro xl kit. I ordered from here. I’ve taken out my floaters, added borax. Now I’m adding the dry stabilizer to a pantyhose. Just tie from my ladder? After that I’ll add 1 1/2 gallons of liquid chlorine. I need to go back to the first post to see how long after do I add the...

    Which ones to tackle first.

    Ok I understand 1-3. I’m going take my floaters out. I’m going to add borax, according to the pool math. Then I will add the dry stabilizer to a sock or pantyhose (just tie it to something)? Then squeeze after 30 minutes or so. I think I have that. I’m not clear on #4. Increase the FC to 12. I...

    Which ones to tackle first.

    Hello to all, I’m stuck at the moment. I will try to explain the best I can so if you stay with me, bless you. I have read several topics in the forums and keep coming up with a mix of steps to take. I’m pretty sure I need to slam my pool but needing to know if I need to bring certain numbers...
