My pool has been open for a couple weeks, it’s clear but has a light tint of green that I would consider not typical of perfection. I’m getting it (and my dirty concrete) up and ready now for the season.
The FC bottomed out at zero between my pool tech opening it and me being ready to maintain, so I suppose that is why there’s evidence of some algae and I should SLAM?
Could I swim in the pool tomorrow or the next day if I bring FC up to 16 per the calculation? Is there a “light shock” level or is that just not worth doing.
Here are my results, I added conditioner overnight last night to get the CYA up to a decent level. I know I need to keep bringing up the CH.
FC 6.5
CC 0
CH <200
TA 70
CYA 40
pH 7.2
I’m using liquid chlorine. Photo of current water attached after a brush & vac.
