Hello - new pool owner here and new to TFP. Did purchase the test kit so do have results. We do know that the existing pump and filter is OLD and has been giving us issues since we moved in. The prior owners had done several patch jobs and we got a price to replace pump and filter and that is happening Monday. The pool guy has already been out to replace some clogged filters and fix some other items.
Issue is the pool is cloudy. When we moved in 5 weeks ago, it was clear, we went away for a long weekend and filter stopped working. We did get it fixed but have not been able to get it clear since. The suction in the filter is mediocre at best. The pool does have a bottom vacuum system which has been working but due to the filter being down for a few days, there was some extra debris and we do not have enough suction coming through to vacuum the remaining up.
FC - 2.5
CC - 1
TA - 250 - this is high, adjust?
CH - 300, color was pink not red.
CYA - 50
Suggestions would be appreciated!T Thank you in advance!
