Yesterday my pool was crystal clear and here are the stats.
27,000 gal Vinyl lined pool
TC 1.0
FC 0.2
CYA 60
CH 100
Ph 7.6
Alk 60
I noticed the chlorine was down to 0 from a lot of bright sun and rain so I added some old tabs to the chlorinator (first mistake) instead of adding liquid chlorine. I need to add some water as well and I used a new hose I had.
Woke up this morning and the water was still clear but bight green. I thought maybe copper leached into the pool from the new hose as it is one of those collapsible hoses made from copper thread (2nd mistake).
I have a test kit but not the ability to test for metals so brought it to a local pool store who tested water and it was 0 for both copper and Iron. Pool store people thought it was an algae bloom. Phosphates were also high at 270.
Recommendations?
Thank you.
