We just moved into a house with a 26,000 gal gunnite pool and need advice on where to begin. The previous owners left a few chemicals behind and a Polaris 380 cleaner but trying to avoid using the tablets and chlorine stabilizers.
I bought a Maytronics PS Plus so it can clean with minimal effort from myself and turned off the forever running booster pump and installed a new timer and have the filter running every night from about 11pm till around 5am since we aren’t swimming anytime soon here in South Carolina.
I took the water to the people that were maintaining the pool and it tested with a CYA over 150 so I know I’m going to have to do a drain and refill to get this under control as the FC was something around 26.
Questions I have is should I bother doing this now or just keep the pool clean as I can with the robot, skimming, filter etc and then deal with the chemistry later (say February) or will the chemical imbalance prove to cause problems.
I plan to order a K2006 test kit but not sure if I should get the C version or not.
Any tips would be appreciated
