Hi Everyone,
I am new and here to learn about the BBB method.
I have a 30' 52" AG pool which is around 2/3 full now as I have not added any water since removing the cover. The water is green and I cannot see the bottom. Am I right in figuring I can get the water cleared up first and then finish filling the pool and retest? Over the past week and a half I have added 20 182 oz jugs (10 at a time) of Walmart Great Value 6% Bleach and 1 bottle of Clarifier. I have been running the filter all this time also. I did purchase the TF-100 Test Kit last year around the 6th of June but never got around to using it. Will all the chemicals still be OK to use? I did run the test today and here are the results:
FC - 1
CC - .5
TC - 1.5
PH - Higher than 8.2
TA - 110
CH - did steps 1 & 2 on instructions and still clear
CYA - Filled tube full and could still see dot - did this test twice
Any help on what steps I should take next would be greatly appreciated.
So glad I found this site!
Thank You!
