Let me start with saying I love this forum and the BBB system. I have been doing pretty well for several years AFTER giving up on the pool store and all their chemicals.
I went through about a week at shock level (around 14). The water was very green, and within the first few days it improved a lot. But it hasn't been improving the last 2-3 days and still a little cloudy. Scrubbed the sides, vacuumed a few times, and cleaned filter several times. I let the FC come down to get a good PH reading...Here are my numbers:
Vinyl above ground 7500 Gal pool with cartridge filter
5.5 FC
O CC
7.2 PH
95/100 TA
20 CH
40/45 CYA
Should I go back up to shock level and wait longer for it to clear up or do something else? Any advice would be appreciated.
