I was all ready to do some pool chemistry today after some major rainfall activity. I measured the following this morning:
FC: 0
TAC: 0
Salt: 2400
hardness: 250
CYA: 0
TA: 50
ph: 8
So, I INTENDED to first put in 15 pounds of sodium bicarbonate. However, instead I mistakenly grabbed the sodium carbonate and added 10 pounds of it directly to the pool, pretty much all at once and then 5 pounds of sodium bicarbonate (containers looked the same). I saw it starting to get cloudy, but I figured it would quickly go away. I then added the 10 pounds of remaining sodium bicarbonate.
The pool is extremely cloudy.
I went ahead 4 hours later and put in 120 lbs of salt. I have a sense-and-dispense acid system, and pH is solid at 7.6.
The pool is as milky as can be. What should I do to overcome my mistake and get rid of the cloudiness?
