Hello, I have read this blog since last year and THANK YOU sooo much for all the help! Chemistry was not my best subject, lol, but I am trying. I still remember Avogadro's number, oh goshhh I don't have to calculate moles do I ? LOLOLOLOL
I bought the Taylor kit that was mentioned and right now I am having issues with TC and high alkalinity.
Numbers are: 270 AK, pH-7.5, FC-0! water is slightly cloudy.
I can see the bottom, but not pristine and clear. I did vacuum and we do have high pollen now due to the pool being under a live oak, and though I have covered the pool, some still blew in by the ladder. (Need to clean filter again, I'm not able to , on hubby's to do list tonight.)
I am using bleach as my chlorine, and not using a stabilizer ( had lots of issues with CYA and ended up wrecking the liner and starting over 2 years ago)
If I understand the pool school teaching correctly, I should add more muriatic acid? how much for such a high AK ratio? my pool is a 15 x 48 round AG, so that would be 4248 gallons, right?
Help all! Tell me whatever I am doing wrong.
PS we installed an acrylic dome over the pool this past weekend, so I am hoping that will help with Mr. Oak also. Love the tree, hate pollen season.
