Hello,
We are trying to balance our pool since we had a huge party. The pool store where i take my samples has been doing our readings and telling us what to put in. Here are our most current readings:
Temp. 78
Tot. Chlorine 0.1
Free Chlorine 0
Ph 7.4
Tot. Alk. 145
adj. tot. alk 121
tot. Hardness 318
Water Hazy
CYA 80
pool size 21500 gallons
uses cartridges
So, they recommended 41 bags of burn out 35 and turn off chlorinator. So we turned off chlorinator. Before we were able to start treatment, the pool turned green. They recommended we put in 10 bags every three hours and that the test strip we are using should turn purple for the chlorine. Well the Tot. Chlorine went up to between 1-3, but the Free chlorine is still at 0. So we put in 25 bags and still the same results. The pool store doesnt' open for 2 1/2 more hours and i don't know if i shoudl keep adding more burn out 35??? Any suggestions?
