My nbor obviously has an issue w chemistries, mainly bc their “pool person” has used pucks for yrs.
I had him drain 1/2 of his 14-15K gal pool to lower CYA, then add 3 gals of bleach as his fills his pool, and i instructed w hose. He filled it from the water source that comes from the tile water line, so i am sure his pH is shot w all the aeration. They also had a sand filter that was “broken” and replaced w a lg Pentair 4/cartridge filter.
So, I’ve never had deep green water, but where do you suggest I start? I’m having him buy 5 more gals of 8% bleach and 2 gals of 32% M Acid. The pool is CL based. I’m waiting for water line to hit skimmers, and once an inch or so, prime the pump & fire it up.
i can post back w pH & FC, but I’m low on CYA mixing fluid and ordered more. I’ve posted a pic from over my fence. Also, even though he drained 1/2 of pool and added 3 gals of bleach for starters, the color doesn’t look any lighter before draining. He’s also running his dolphin full time too.
thank you & pls advise
