New pool owner. never got around starting the new pool service contract so in few weeks pool was almost to green. First trip to pool store water testing they suggested cholorine 5lb shocking, 9lbs of Alkalinity up and Chlorine tabs. So brushed and vacuum and added chemicals as suggested, skimmed and backwash filter etc for a week. By working on it daily for past week the pool is back to blue and free of debris. only thing is water could be clearer, can see the floor and wall of the pool on deep end (9ft) but The floor on the shallow end looks much clearer. Chlorine was zero as expected first trip. Second trip (test posted) went to a different pool store to have the water tested. I didn’t expect to add that many more chemicals. I purchased everything they suggested, Just wanted to get suggestions if it sound right. Thank you.
