Hi,
I fortunately have not had to get on the forum in a long time because everything in my pool has been great since I finally figured out the Trouble Free Bleach method. But recently we had a large pitbull dog drown in our pool and had to empty it out and scrub down with bleach. I have now refilled the pool and turned the pump back on and in the process of vacuuming excess leaves that fell in and a small amount of residue that formed on the bottom from the pump being off, but have put nothing in yet. My readings are as follows:
pH = 8.2+
CL = 0
FC = 0
TA = 160
CYA = 0
Not sure why the TA and pH is so high, maybe because I have put nothing in? In any case I was going to start with a gallon of liquid stabilizer and a gallon of 10% liquid chlorine and test again in a couple of hours. Is this a good start or should I be doing something else?
