Well it's probably even more than that, I added some towards the end of last year and the shock they sold me had stabilizer in it. Smh they told me i needed to get the pH to hold before the chlorine would work and recommended more stabalizer.... so my chlorine probably isn't working at all
What's done is done, what matters is what is happening now. The good news is, no matter what the test results come back as, its all fairly simple to get back to where it needs to be. Brush and/or vacuum daily as Richard mentioned. The cleaner the overall surface of the pool is when you start your SLAM the more effective it will be and yield faster results.
