Hello- new pool owner last year. Just tried opening myself this year for the first time. Going fairly well by my expectations. Can I please have some guidance.
Fc 5.0
Cc 0.5
PH 7.3
CYA less than 30 was always able to see dot
Alk 50
CH 225
20,000 gallons, doing the BBB method, opened yesterday green water. I skimmed, added 4 jugs of 12.5% yesterday morning just hoping to stunt algae and to get things moving in my favor. Filter running 24hrs now. I was about to do a slam but I suspect I need to add CYA first, then PH check, then do it.
Current status is mostly cleared water. Slight haze and a lot of brushed algae fallen to bottom that I have yet to vacuum out.
Thanks
Dan
