Just added a new 1.5 VS pump, water was clear. Next morning cloudy as can be, took sample to pool place no chlorine at all have in line chlorinator (keep it halfway open) and have kept anywhere from 1-2 ppm for the summer all other numbers are great. So I shocked it and clarifier added!
 
Welcome to the forum! :handshake:

I suggest you read Pool School - ABCs of Pool Water Chemistry and consider reviewing the entire Trouble Free Pool School book.

If you interested in keeping your pool clean and sanitary without pool store potions you need a proper test kit.

Order a TF100 test kit
The only other real option for a test kit is a Taylor K-2006-C. Be careful comparing prices because the K-2006 comes in sizes, designated by a letter. The basic K-2006 has .75oz bottles. You need to get the K-2006-C to get the larger bottles that you want.
I also have the SpeedStir. It makes testing much easier.
