https://www.troublefreepool.com/threads/125157-Chlorine-made-pool-water-turn-brown?p=1115563#post1115563 My problem was after treating the water with chemicals (bleach). It was perfectly blue until I added bleach and then it was coffee brown. I added my thread which shows what we tried and what...

Sorry I don't have their flyer. It is advertised under my city's zip code: Swim Shock Liquid Chlorine at Menards good until 8/13/16

Thanks for the quick response! Water is clear!

So my results are: FC 10.5 CC 0 TC 10.5 pH 7.2 TA 130 CH 200 CYA 30 I've been adding about 1/2c 12.5% bleach daily until my test kit came, so my best guess is that's why it's so high,:confused: so until it gets closer to a 4 I will then decide if I should adjust my pH, (a) is that correct? I...

We still have the biodiesel filter bags on the return line and home Dupont filter running with 1 micron this time. :)

Oh I also stocked up on some liquid chlorine at Menards. $2.50 for 1 gal. Usually it's $3.99. :kim:

Today, I can't believe this is the same pool!

I will add photos later today of everything.

Sorry! I'm on my kindle, I edited it :)

Polyfill did nothing for me. All my water went murky brown, the link above is my post. The flocculant, vac to waste cleared it quite well. I ordered some .5 & 1 micron biodiesel filter bags from online. They are inexpensive and work AMAZING. Much like a slime bag. We quit vac to waste and...

Menards has a sale on their 12.5% for $2.50 a gallon.

I'm glad it worked too! I vacuumed four times, even again this morning. it's just getting better and better. I also ordered some of the 1micron. And the bags are catching a lot! My test kit should be here tomorrow or Monday. I think I'm going to get a sequestrant to at least hide whatever may be...

We added an entire bottle (2x the directed amt) of Clorox flocculant yesterday at 9pm. Let it recirculate for 2hr then turned the pump off.This morning the iron was on the bottom of the pool: Thursday 8/4/16 After a quick vacuum to waste of it: Going to let it resettle and vac to waste...
