Hello,
This is my first post on the forums. I have a few questions about some problems that I have been dealing with. First some back ground info. I just started taking over taking care of 3 pools for a local hospitals health club about three months ago. The whole pool chemistry is still a little new to me. My biggest problem has been with the main lap pool becoming cloudy. We do have a heavy bather load with multiple water aerobics classes almost every day. I have tried adding pool clarifier to the pool but it only seems to help for a few days after vacuuming up the residue from the bottom after it settles. All three Pools use bromine for disinfectant with ORP controllers. I have also been struggling with keeping the main lap pools ORP above 650. But when I test for bromines the levels have been acceptable. We test the water 2-3 times daily. Below is my test results this morning from the Lap pool.
PH. 7.2
ALK 90
Bromine 6
CH 370
I did not check my TDS but last time I did it was 750.
Thanks any advice will be great.
