Bought our home last fall and the pool was not opened in around 2 years. The liner fell in the pool during a storm in Feb and left me with a mess. I have most of the debris out of the pool, but am struggling with opening. I would like to use the BBB method if possible and am hoping for some guidance as to where to proceed.
I have been working on shocking the pool for several days now. I placed an order for the TF-100 kit, but until it arrives, I have test strips and pool store readouts.
Current numbers:
TC: 9.5
FC: 7.5
pH: 6.2
TA: 13
Hardness: 70
CYA: pool store did not test for CYA
Size: Approx 23,000 gal 16x32 Grecian
Liner: Vinyl
The pool store recommended hundreds of dollars in chemicals of course, so I am hoping that someone can give me some better advice on where to go. The green has started to clear up more since I added more shock yesterday, so I think I need to start getting my other numbers in line.
Which do I need to work on adjusting first? TA?
Thanks in advance for the help.
