I have ordered a TF-100 test kit, but in the mean time I'm at a loss of what to do. Right now the pool is a cloudy light green and I can see the bottom of the pool in the shallow end. I took a sample up to the pool store yesterday and added per their instructions 5 bags of burnout 35. The Pool store also suggested not adding anything to lower the PH since we were expected to have some heavy rain hit that evening. I Also just opened the pool this past Saturday 5/18/13 and had the sand in the filter changed as well. I'm wondering if this is just a matter of filtering or if i need more chemicals.
Thanks for any advice
