Opened 2 days ago, mesh cover.. It snowed today! Anyways hopefully not much longer to go. My test results before adding anything were:
PH 8.2
FC 0
CC
CYA About 10
TA 60
CH 270
Added acid, stabilizer to about 30, and liquid 12.5% chlorine only for now. Vacummed once and several brushing. I will not vacum deep end until I see whats on bottom, only scooping worms and debris. I vacummed to waste blindly last year in deep end and sticks clogged my propellor in motor. Waiting a little bit for that. A tip for newcomers....make sure your cholrine cylinder is clean with bleach before you start. A couple of years ago I shocked way too long even though the water was clear, CC's coming out more than one just because of dirty cylinder..
