Well, Ike has come and gone and left us without power since around 2am Saturday morning. According to Centerpoint (the electrical provider), we may get power back by Monday. Needless to say the pool is a mess with no power to drive the pump and the Polaris.
I managed to scoop up most of the leaves from the bottom or the pool and am dumping 1-2 gallons of bleach in each day (trying to keep the chlorine levels high to fight the gunk). My only problem is that since my CYA and CH were running a little high I decided to drain off a couple of inches from the pool and let the rain water replinish it. Unforunately I got a phone call from work and totally forgot about everything for the next hour. My pool is now 12-16" low so I have no idea how many gallons are now in the pool.
So my question is, do I just continue randomly dumping bleach in? And if so, how much?
