Hello! I have a couple questions about cleaning up my water from winter. I plan on removing all leaves, and debri first, then brushing. Should my next step be shocking the pool, or adding algaecide? The local pool store says add algaecide first then wait 24 hrs to shock. I'm a little hesitant to follow their advice since they told me last year the CYA levels are not important, and do not matter!
