Hi TFP,
I posted this earlier but I'm out of ideas and feeling very frustrated and I'm hoping for some advice.
I'm getting foam when my water is agitated. My CYA was high so I drained half the water and refilled and got it back down to manageable levels. But the foam remained. I opened the pool May 1 so any algaecide should have dissipated by now. My chemicals are good, CL 5, PH 7.6, CYA 60. The water is very clear. Yet the foam problem remains. So I was cleaning off my table and noticed that when I first turned on my garden hose, I see foam. This was the same hose I used to fill the pool. This is a new hose. I read an article that some garden hoses leach chemicals. Could this be the problem?!?!?! If it is, the only solution would be to drain the entire pool and refill it with fresh water? I am out of ideas and want the water to be safe as my kids swim in it and summer is well on it's way. Please help.
Robert
