35000 IG plaster pool & spa
Initially the pool was eating up chlorine. Then we saw some small sites of algae. Had water tested on 6-22-13
6-22-13 test
FC = 0
TC = 0
Calc Hardness = 390
CYA = 30
Total Alkalinity = 70
pH = 7.2
Tot Dis Solids = 800
Phosphates = 100
This pool company said we needed to shock the pool 3 days in a row to get TC, FC up and algae out
I shocked with appropriate amount 70% Chlorine. TC and FC barely moved up.
Got water tested 6-24-13 at different pool company (gonna run out of pool companies soon)
FC = 0.2
TC = 0.69
pH = 7.1
Hardness = 439
Alkalinity = 47
CYA = 144
Copper = 0.1
Nitrate = 35
We were told to empty the pool approx 60% and refill with fresh water due to high nitrate level.
Any advice will be appreciated.
