First of all, I'm a newbie to this site as far as posting but I have been a reader for a good while. I have read many many helpful post on this site and with that I was able to solve most of my pool issues. With that thanks to all the good info...55wildcat
Now I need more help.. I have been having cloudy issues for a while now along with chalky milk like residue. With
all the good info I have changed to liquid 10% chlorine for shock and sanitizing, hence the chalking and milk like stuff has stopped..Now back to the cloudy issues, I just last week tried some alum to help clear pool up, Filtered for a couple of hours, let it set overnight then trued to vac which did nothing but really get cloudy because I have no waste on a cartridge filter. I know now not I should not have added alum. After a few more days of frustration I drained pool 3/4 way down ( don't panic, done this last year getting CYA down) and re filled. Today is the 4th day of this fresh water and it's still not clear. I can look hard and see the bottom but it is nowhere near crystal clear..Will this alum eventually filter out?
My numbers as of this morning are
FC..3.6
CC..0.0
PH..7.4
ALK..80
CYA..35
CH..140
Thanks for any help..
