Hi,
I've been mostly following these great techniques and this website for 1 year. I haven't shocked my pool since following the methods, and i'm getting a bit nervous. Last year, perhaps every other chlorine test, there was a flash of red using the dpd taylor test kit (the test for chloramines i believe). This year, there is consistently a tiny bit of red when i add the three drops, that always clears with one drop of titrant. When would i want to shock? Thanks. Steve
