I have been trying to clear up a milky looking pool for days now. I have been using the HTH 6 way test kit.My pool wont keep a chlorine level.
I went a bought the HTH test kit and getting a level of TA at 260.I was adding the stuff I was told to add to bring the level down.It was not working I was just getting a higher level every time I tested.So I decited to take a sample of water to the pool store and their test shows my TA level to be low not high like the HTH test.Here is the pool store test results
FC 0.8
TC 0.8
CC 0.0
PH 7.0
TH 210
TA 80
CYA 35
The store told me my TA was low and to add Balance Pak 100 so I added it as they said to.They also said My pool needed chlorine so I have been adding bleach everyday.The bleach goes very low a few hours after I put it.
Well I just tested again with my HTH test and now it shows my TA level 400. Count drops a multiply by 10. So my qiestion is what test should I go by the HTH or the pool store?
I rigged my water input on the pool like a waterfall and that has brought my PH level up to 7.5.
