I opened my pool in June and initially had debris around in the bottom. But did clean and added Chlorox chlorine and algaecide to the pool in first week.
Pool testing strips continue to show no Free chlorine. Have been taking water for testing at a reputed chain Pool Store. I was told initially to add their super shock alkanility increaser(18 pounds), Ph increaser(2 pounnds). Did that , next visit after 2 days i was told to add Pool First Aid and Non Chlorinating shock (Scotch) more Ph increase another 2 pounds. Well after 5 weeks I am almost still there with little progress. Yesterday I was told probably i have copper so 1 bottle of sequencing agent . Todays test i noticed phosphate level is 700s which was at 585 yesterday. I have a 38000 gallons pool. I did have 3 litre bottle of phosfree that I though will add to the pool skimmer. I see spa became cloudy blue right after adding . Any help what should I do out of options. Pool company keeps suggesting more and more products.
