Hi, newbie here!!!
I'm in the process of changing to the BBB Method, started three days ago. Right now I have one question. Will the cooper in my pool interfer with zero chlorine reading? For the last three days I've poured in one 182oz bottle of bleach each day. I'm still getting a zero reading.
AGP Oval 18x33x54 approximately 18,000 gallons
Sand filter
FC 0
TC 3.5
PH 7.2
AKL 40
CYA 30-50
I don't have my test kit yet. So these are basic strip test readings from the pool store. Starting today I am adding 24oz of CYA granular in a sock through the skimmer basket. It seemed to be on the low side of normal. I know I need to raise the AKL, but I'm really worried about the zero chlorine.
We opened the pool three weeks ago. It was cloudy, geenish, and slimely. We started the cooper cell on max., shocked it, scrubbed walls and bottom, clarifier. Right now it is clear and sparkling. I just do not want to get behind the eight ball on this. I've read through all the pool school thread. It seems simple with the right test kit and knowledge. This zero is stumping me. Any help is appreciated.
Thank you,
Clodda
