I just pulled the cover off of my 20x40 vinyl lined inground pool. It wasnt closed properly last year and was done too late. So alot of leaves ahd gotten in. The water currently is somewhat clear. I have green algae and some leave build up. Ive been scooping out the leaves but now the water has disturdbed the algae and its difficult to see the leaves in the deep end.
My question is, should i begin shocking the pool to help clear the water, along with adding algacide. Someone had once told me that if i shock the pool with lots of leaves in it, they will basically neutralize, or use up most of the chlorine thus making it more difficult to get the water clear and balanced.
Any pointers?
