Hello, we purchased a property to 'flip'. We hope to have it back on the market in 2 weeks, so I'm hoping to get the pool cleared fast. I ordered the TAYLOR TECHNOLOGIES INC K-2006 TEST KIT after reading through the forum, BUT it won't be here for a week. I'm hoping someone can give me suggestions until I get it in.
The pool hasn't been opened in approx 3 years, and someone stole the pump. We have a new pump installed and its up and running. I dumped about 3 gal of bleach in per night for a week or so. It's started to clear up a bit, but there's still lots of Algee & dead worms on the bottom when I vac (on waste).
We've had an above ground for 10 years, so I've got some experience, but fortunately ours has never been this bad. I've always taken my own water to the pool store to be tested, but I'm not going to be able to afford doing that with this swamp! Any suggestions of what I can do to jump start it until my kit arrives?
Thanks all! This forum is great! Also had 6 areas of liner that came off track & got 5 of them pulled back up using the advise on here! I'm still working on the big one
