Ok going to prefence this by saying I probably have no business owing a pool I don't get pool chemistry very good but I'm willing to learn! Thank God, I found this site.
We have had this pool set up for a couple of years and despite it being a Blue World Pool, never had any real problems. Well at the end of last summer the ionizer really wasn't working anymore and then I had a heart attack so the pool was never really tended to. It is now a green swamp. I tried shocking it but it didn't really do anything. I read Jason's post and that answered most of my questions. I know I need to slam it but I don't understand even with the calculator what my slam levels are.
Here are my very sad current levels
FC-0.0ppm
TC-1.1ppm
CC-1.1ppm
pH- UNR6.3
Hardness- 0ppm
Alkalinity (w/stablizer correction) 0ppm
Cyanuric Acid 4ppm
Copper 0ppm
Iron- 0ppm
HELP
