On Thu night we had 2" on rain in 45 minutes that has turned the pool very cloudy and slightly green. Had to drain 2" out.
Pump is working fine, normal pressure. Water has been crystal clear up until then, with good numbers.
I was reading that rain can bring a lot of crud down out of the sky and into the pool.
Ran numbers yesterday:
FC - 1
CC- 0
Alk - 60 (has usually been 70-80)
Ph - 7.8 (has never varied from 7.5)
CYA - 40
Added bleach, baking soda and acid. This morning:
FC - 3
CC - 0.5
Alk - 80
Ph - 7.5
CYA - 40
Am I right in thinking to shock it and then wait for the cloudyness to work it's way out?
(The only times this pool has ever looked like this is during Spring cleaning, and then it clears in one day.)
