Hi. My CYA is off-the-charts high, so I'm about to drain the pool, replace the water, and then start the SLAMing process.
I have read the SLAM article. Just to confirm I understand the correct order of re-introducing the chemicals, I need to bring the pH up to 7.2 - 7.5 with the new water before I start adding the liquid chlorine, correct?
Historically, my pH has been low and I've been adding Borax to get it up. I'm not sure what to expect with the replacement water from the hose. I'm guessing the pH is naturally low and I'll need to actually raise it this time?
Any tips or recommendations are appreciated. This is my first time draining and SLAMing. Thanks in advance!
