Hi everyone, new member, first time posting. I am struggling to get my water crystal clear. Pool is 5 years old, fiberglass. I replaced the sand in the filter this week as my final attempt at something.
-PH is 7.6 (a little too high still but ok)
-Cya- 80
-Chlorine is 15 and combined is 15(I’ve been shocking the heck out of it for 3 weeks)
-Calcium is 260 which is a little high but not bad. Adding water to help drop it
-Phosphates are 600 which is high, hoping adding water and draining water a little each day will bring back down. Also been using a phosphate remover weekly in a pool juice chemical.
-Alkalinity is 87
-Saturation Index is normal
You can see in the one picture it’s hard to see the pool cleaner on the bottom. I’ve done everything I can think of. I get the water tested every two days and have added every product I’m told too. I’ve added filter cleaner, I’ve added a pool rescue product, shock by the truck load, you name it. I’m at the point that I willing to empty the pool and risk it collapsing on itself to refill it with fresh water because I can’t bring myself to let anyone swim in something that looks like this. I’ve put more money into this pool in 6 weeks than I did in 4 years combined. The pool was crystal clear when I opened it in the spring and the minute I started trying to get the water chemistry correct this happened. Lastly, pump has been running 24/7 for 5 weeks now.

Somethng tells me those test rtesults are not from a TF-100 or Taylor K-2006C performed at home correct? You really need to test your own water. It makes all the difference. I doubt your FC and CC levels are both 15 or there is a really big problem. CSI doesn't apply to our FG pools unless you have a waterline.
