So, I just installed a new liner and wanted to try bacquacil (again) because I thought it would keep liner looking new longer. (Knowing I would probably only get a couple of years of using Bac before the problems began-I had used it for several years and converted to TFP method in 2017, 2018)
Well, I have had pool up and running for literally one week and am ready to convert to chlorine...I know, I know- I should've known better !
I plan on draining 1/2 the water (more if you tell me how far down I should drain without causing liner issues), refilling and starting conversion. I will follow TFP method of conversion.
My question are, since my water will be partially fresh and I don't have any real problems yet, is it going to take a lot of scrubbing and cleaning?
Also, do I have to change my sand or can I just deep clean it. I am conflicted because on the one hand pool school says to change it, I read another post somewhere that said you never have to change sand, just deep clean.
hoping since everything is new it wont be as much of an ordeal
Thanks in advance!
Right now alkalinity and ph are in check, but if I am draining and refilling will have to get them straight again, and can report my numbers at that time if necessary.
