In-ground vinyl salt 18k. Buffalo NY.
My pool was clear and cold - we scheduled our normal pool closer for last Friday. Between blowing the lines and putting the looploc cover on it's worth the $250ish to have someone take care of it.
This past spring when I opened the pool it was loaded with thick green algae which took a while to fix. So I swung by Leslie pools and told them about this - they told me to put in:
1qt of Algae Control
2lbs of Chlor Brite Granular Chlorine Pool Sanitizer
Did that Thursday morning. Go to work Friday and come home to a closed up pool. Going through the pool shed this morning and I discovered and a box with empty containers. I suppose there was a miscommunication, he put in a pool closing kit with four gallons, which includes:
1 Gallon of 'winter conditioner'
2 Gallons of Shock chlorinating solution (12.5% sodium hypochlorite)
1 Gallon of 'Algaecide growth depressent' (5% Dimethyl Benzyl Ammonium Chloride)
My questions are:
1) Should I be freaked out? Will the liner be damaged/destroyed?
2) If yes, how can I fix this now that the pool has been closed?
3) If no, what can I expect come spring?
