I am new too pools. Have been trying for 3 weeks to get the pool ready, will be time to close it before i get it ready at this rate. I have been going to a local pool place and everytime i go i get a different thing to do. I am confused about how long trichlor pucks should last before they dissolve. The place i go to said they should be gone in no more than 6 hours. The research i have done says they should last 7 days for a 3 inch puck. which is right. Yesterday my was green and cloudy. last night i added pool clear and lavo 12 as directed by the pool place. today my water is blue and cloudy. and i do mean cloudy, when you put your hand in the water up to your wrist, you can't see the bottom of your fingers.
Today's test results:
free chlorine 0.1 ppm
total chlorine 0.1 ppm
combined chlorine 0.0 ppm
ph 7.8
hardness 190ppm
alkalinity 160ppm
if anyone can help me get this pool ready and get the kids of my back i would be forever greatful.
