Hi. I have decided that I would like to start using the BBB method for my pool. Here’s the stats of the pool:
inground vinyl lined 16x32, 77,000 litres (approx. 20,500 gallons)
1.5 hp sand filter
automatic puck chlorinator
Went to the pool store the other day to have the water chemistry checked….
Sanitizer total = 0
Free = 0
pH = 7.5
T.A = 90
Adj. T.A. = 90
C.H. 120
Optimizer = 0
Copper = 0
Iron = 0
Manganese = 0
Algae = None
Clarity = clear
I was told at the pool store to add 3 bags of shock (0.92 kgs) , followed by 6 kgs. of chemical to boost calcium hardness and (this one doesn’t seem right to me) 8 kgs. (which is about 17 lbs. of chemical to raise TA. Does this sound right? Does this mean I would need to add 17 lbs. of A&H soda?
Hope someone can help me. Thanks.
