Just to update, Natural Chemistry tech support said an opened container of liquid stabilizer will store over the winter without losing its effectiveness.
Getting ready to close next week, my CYA is 40.
I have about a 1/2 gallon of liquid stabilizer in the shed, should I add now or save for the spring?
Is there a shelf life for the opened container of liquid stabilizer?

still hazy, I’m thinking it’s time to SLAM? Noticed a bit of green on the steps this morning.
2nd question, should I bring CYA up to 60 before starting?
I also added another8oz of acid to bring pH down to 7.4
Water has been a little hazy for a few days now, not sure how to clear it up. Numbers seem ok although CYA is a bit low and pH is a bit high.
FC 4.5
CC 0.5
CYA 40-50
pH 8.0
TA 80
Salt 3200
temp 88

Today I went to turn on the step jets after removing the plugs and reinstalling the nozzle assemblies and water began flowing out of the air control knobs when I opened them to let air in. The knobs are located above the jet and above the water line. So, needless to say, there are no bubbles...
Ahh, yes, salt level, that would help.
I’ll check this afternoon before turning on the SWG.
Will also add acid to drop pH a bit more.
Thanks for your help!!!!
OCLT passed, water has cleared up this morning, kept the pump running overnight. SWG is not connected yet.
Added muriatic acid last night, dropped pH to 7.8, TA dropped to 110.
Next steps,
Bring CYA to 70 and and correct TA and pH, connect SWG?
Opened it up today and was surprised how clear the water was. I did notice some white substance along the walls and floor. I guess it sorta looked like the dust/powder that was in the pool in the fall after the pavers were done. I spent a week cleaning and the pool was crystal clear before...
Is a SLAM required when opening the pool?
I see that it is required if CC is above 0.5 or FC is zero.
Is there usually chlorine left in the pool after having it covered all winter? The pool installer closed the pool in October, they threw some shock in and pulled the cover over.
The light switch for my Intellibrite 5G LED Color Pool Light is currently inside the electric sub panel enclosure out by my pool pump. It is approximately 50' from the house in the back corner of the yard.
I am looking to control the light remotely(smart switch) or relocate the switch to the...
