Also shouldn't your SLAM FC level be 10ppm?
Since my initial problem was Algae (green water) and I have the CYA hanging in a sock and PoolSchool says to SLAM slightly above Shock level, I chose 15ppm to ensure that I was taking into account the CYA that is being added. PoolMath suggested 122oz bleach at 8.25% concentration to bring it to 15ppm. I used 10 as my CYA level since what I am adding should bring it up to the 15-20 range. I didn't see Dave's suggestion of not adding it until it was already in! :-(
As far as not testing anything else - the only other things I was testing was PH, but I stopped and then did a full test today to see if CYA increased.
cloudiness is reducing and I am going to be brushing, vacuuming again later today to hopefully remove anything remaining at the bottom. Still cant see all the way to the bottom clearly, but can make out some outlines of some piles of leaves in the center of the pool. They are a little hard to get to without getting in, so it is taking a little time to get them all out.
Other than that, I think all is on track to hopefully be done tomorrow, but that will all depend on the OCLT in the morning and if the water clear up by then
Thanks for all the advice. I am continuing to read as I go through my two hour testing. So far I am only adding bleach every 4 hours as needed depending on test results. Test time is in 30 mins. Oh I have also cleaned the filter every time I add bleach, so also approximately every 4 hours. I have two that I am rotating.
Am I doing something wrong at this point? I am hoping I am still on the right track. Water is clearling, but now I am worried if my FC level is too high?
