I've been trying to use the BBB method this year and so far the pool is still a pale green.
my numbers as of today are :
FC = 12.5
CC = 1
TC = 13.5
TA = 170
CH = 190
CYA = 28 -30
PH = 7.8
I'm not sure as to what to do next. I've been using a lot of liquid bleach from the grocery store. According to the chlorine/CYA chart I'm at shock level. AS I add more chlorine I get a light brown stain on the pool steps -which I believe is from tanins from oak leaves that are still in the pool. I've been removing them over time but since I can't see the bottom of the pool it's hit or miss. Am I close to the mark on these numbers ? Any advice is appreciated.
thanks
