I checked FC this morning it was at 11.5. I will add .5 of chlorine to bring it to 12. I checked the PH now that my chlorine has come down and its 6.8 or below. Should I bring the ph up now that my chlorine is down. thank you for answering this ole girls questions.

Update: Water still a very light green. Still checking FC its been over 12 until this afternoon. Sun was shinning most of the day. FC fell to 9.5. I put in 19oz 10% bleach to raise to 12 per CYA at 30. We decided to replace filter sand so I'm hoping we will have clear water within the next...

I just retested FC and CC. FC is coming down a little 22ppm and CC is 0. Pool still light green. My husband is fixing to backwash so I hope this will help. Thanks for putting up with me until I get this problem cleared.

Mknauss according to my instructions on TF-100 I put 1 scoop of R-0870 then swirled it around. I then added 51 drops of R-0871 to get it to clear. Multiplied 51x.0.5. Its raining here now so I'm hoping the rain will delute my chlorine a bit. When it quits I will go test again and report the...

Thank you for your help. Yes, it has had CYA in it from last year. So I will assume it has about 10ppms of CYA. According to Pool Math I will need to add 8oz of granular in a sock to hopefully raise to 30ppm.

I live in Alabama. The pool has been clear all winter. The last few weeks we have been warm and the pool is now green. I want to slam with 10% pool bleach from Walmart. I just tested the CYA and the dot never disappeared. So I'm guessing I have 0 or very little CYA left. Do I need to raise...
