Ok. Thank you so much for the help!

Last night my FC was 16 and CC 0. This morning my FC is 15.5 and CC 0. Water is very clear this morning. Last question, when do so start to bring the pH down, now that everything looks good?

I do have a SWG, and just figured out how to turn it off. Still in the learning mode.. I’ve got it off now. I’ll check the level tonight and in the morning and will report. I can see the bottom of the pool. Have been able to all along. There is still a slight cloudiness to the water, but not...

Ok. Thanks. Do you think it’ll be swimmable this weekend?

Here are my test numbers this morning: FC was 20 last night FC 19.5 CC 0 Alkalinity 100 pH 8.2 temp 84. I didn't run the calcium or the CYA today. The water is much clearer than it's been. I did do a backwash and filter clean, vacuum has been running and pump has been on 24/7. What are my...

I found this at Lowes. 10%. Is it the right stuff?

Thank you!!!

What kind of bleach should I use? I will need to go to the store to get some. Lowes, or Walmart?

Should I backwash?

The CC was 1. How do I bring up my FC to 20? Shock it? I have two packets of Shockwave? My current psi is 20, and I currently have my chlorinator on my SWG at 80%. Should I turn it up to 100%?

It's still cloudy, but I can see the bottom drains. I have a teal liner, and the color is just darker. I have attached two pictures of the pool. One is clear water when we first filled it. The second I just took.

I took the water sample because the water was cloudy. I would not have put CYA in the pool, but the sample said it was 0. I figured I should probably put some in since it was 0. The algaecide I bought is called Swimtrine Plus. And, looking at the ingredients it actually does have copper in it...

I took these this morning.

Ok... I have taken all the tests and here are the results...... The pool is still cloudy this morning, but I can see the drains in the bottom of the pool..... I have been using the robot vacuum, and I brushed the pool last night. What are my next steps? I took the day off today to dedicate to...

I will run all the tests in the test kit today and post my results this morning. I was planning on doing a backwash, partial drain and refilling. Is this a good idea?

Ok.. I have made a bunch of blunders. I was working off the advice of a friend who has been a pool owner for decades, so go easy on me. This is my first year of pool ownership and I am definitely still learning. This is the first time I have had any issues with my water or chemistry. I have a...

Greetings everyone! My husband Chris and I just finished building our very first pool, and yesterday was our first day of swimming. Now that the pool is open, I need to learn how to care for it. We have a Vinyl pool with a SWG. L shape 16x36 with L of 10x12. We also have dogs that love to swim...
