Hi Guys,
Just starting my first slam on the pool we inherited a few months ago with a house purchase.
Most of the pre slam numbers look ok, SWCG easily keeping up, CC 0.5 or 0 for the last few years. BUT we have been getting a brown cloudy layer growing on the bottom and steps. It vanishes when disturbed (goes puff). Takes about 3 days to be obvious.
Starting CYA is 70 after a small drain and refill. Would have done more but I have no main drain so its just the skimmer.
Starting FC was 8. SWCG is now turned off. 12.5% liquid chlorine added at 1pm targeting 28. Just sampled and came in at 20 6 hours later. Added the rest of a 5L bottle and will test again in an hour to see where that gets us.
Ps This is the first time using liquid chlorine from Bunnings for me and I am a bit dubious on how much of that 12.5% is left...
