Hi everyone, appreciate the help, it's my first year with an above ground vinyl liner pool. We got it off marketplace, came with a SWG but we had to buy a new probe for it (megachlor MegaChlor - ControlOMatic). It's a 7500 gallon Wilbar, I have the test kit from TFP. Been doing pretty good and staying clear, balancing it well with minimal effort. However it doesn't seem to be generating enough chlorine and I keep having to add liquid chlorine. It's cloudy today and tested with 0 chlorine. We are leaving in 2 days and it's supposed to be very hot. I just added some chlorine (80 oz of Clorox regular), but what else can I do? Salt and other levels are fine. I don't want to come back to a disaster because we are going to want to use it.
 
Hmmmm? Something is wrong- Your link implies that cell can service a pool up to 17k? Yet you're only 7K right?
How about a full set of test results with your trusty test kit:
FC
CC
pH
TA
CH
CYA
Salt level

Thank you so much, this was my last test a couple of days ago. The FC is there but the chlorine in the ph/chlorine test is not.
