I have pool in ground, vinyl lined pool that is 19,200 gallons. I've been faithfully testing and adding the appropriate amount of chlorine daily using pool math. Pretty much everyday I have to add 2qts, 1cup, 2oz to get my chlorine back to where it belongs.
Normally, I do this around 700AM. Today, I did it around noon. When I tested the water, there was no free chlorine and the combined was less than .5, like it normally is. I say, less than .5 because using the TF Test Kit when I add the chemical in to turn it pink again after testing FC, there is only the lightest perceptible pink tint to the water. It could easily be mistaken for clear. This is basically what it is everyday. Anyway, today when I tested the chlorine about 5 hours later than normal, there was suddenly no chlorine at all.
Is five extra hours of morning sun enough to zap the rest of my chlorine like this, or should I be looking for another solution?
Peace,
Kevin
