Hello,
Opened my pool Memorial Day weekend as usual. Have owned the pool for past 3 years and in the past I usually add 4lbs of stabilizer, some chlorine and 3 - 4 days later I can see the bottom. Not so this year. I'm a week in and still cloudy. I added the stabilizer on Day 1 and trying to keep chlorine at shock level. Right now the pool is a cloudy blue. When it was opened it was blackish which is normal for when I open with a loop loc cover. What am I missing?
Here's my #'s with a test strip right now:
TH: 100
TC: can't tell exactly but somewheres between 3 and 10
FC: 3
pH: 6.8
TA: 40
Stabilizer: in the 0 - 40 range (I added 4lbs so believe I'm good there)
I went to a local pool store yesterday and they sold me shock (non-chlorine). That hasn't seemed to change anything. My test is from today after adding 2 gallons last night.
