So we have had our pool for a couple months and I think I need to SLAM it.
I tested the Pool last week and the Chlorine level was at 0. Also, pH was high and so I took my water to the local pool shop to get it tested (I know try not to beat on me too much ).
After testing they said that I had an issue with phosphates, causing my problems. Did what they said to remove them, come Monday same problem 0 Chlorine, pH still high been trying to reduce it.
So I'm done with the local shop, so I have a couple questions. Sorry for all the questions, any help would be appreciated.
I working on getting my pH down to 7.2, added some pH down this morning it was over 8, how long to wait before testing again/add more pH down?
My CYA is also at 0, the pool is clear, a little algae . Do I need to get the CYA up prior to the SLAM? From what I read this needs to be a 70.
Should you stay out of the pool during the SLAM process? Not an issue, but just wanted to check.
We have a 21K SWG Vinyl IG pool.
