We've had about 6 days of rain and storms here....
Today's test results:
FC 2
TC appears to be 2 (but subjective and I won't have TF-100 kit till around Thurs. to be able to truly check CC's)
pH 7.5-7.8
TA 90
TH 400
CYA 60
We obviously need to add chlorine, but a couple of days ago my husband noticed some yellowish looking algae on our tanning ledge and around the skimmer that's down there too. As well, we've had some soap bubbly water where our spillway and waterfall hit the pool and it's been suggested to me that could be indicative of algae as well.
Is there a way for me to know what type it is so that I know how high to shock?
I plan to brush the pool today as well. The pool doesn't look all that bad surprisingly (after all the storms )....maybe just barely cloudy and I think anyone else not involved themselves with pool chemistry would say it looks great....but regardless there definitely is some algae on the ledge.
What to do?
Many thanks!
