Hey all,
I've never owned a pool before, I did alot of research to buy the pool, and SWG.. But I'm completely raw on getting it started..
My local pool shop advised me to get my ALK down before adding in any of the shock or start up stuff.. The alk from my hose water is atleast 250 in the test strips, thats the highest it goes, so it could be higher.
It's a 18x33x54" pool, 18k some odd gallons.
I've added 5 gallons of Muratic acid and the test strip still shows 250.
Should I keep adding Muratic Acid? Is there something else I should be doing?
The solar cover is on the pool and the pump is running 24/7.
I do not have the SWG running yet, It wont run untill next year. This year I am just trying to get the pool all leveled out and setup roght, then I meed to shut it down for the winter..
Thanks in. advance for ghe advice!!
