I am a subscriber to the app and log all activity but have not linked the accounts. The pool opening this spring was cloudy, whereas it's usually very clear. Opening service shocks, bleeds, skims and recharges as usual and pool usually clears up. In these 2 days I have had the first fresh charge of DE in and the pool running for 48 hours straight. I have vacuumed with the system vacuum (I have a vacuum pre-filter) and I have added more liquid chlorine (2 gal @ 10% for 30k gal plaster pool). CYA high because the service uses shock crystals instead of liquid stuff -- It usually calms down by mid sseason.
This morning I checked and FC was 10 and Ph went up to 8. Added suggested amount of Muriatic for Ph and now the robot vacuum is in the pool -- he'll probably run all day. Pool filter system has been running for 48 hours straight and pressure went up from 18 to 25. Probably going to backwash and recharge today as it's raining.
Just a tad concerned because I have never had ph readings that high, nor have I had this sort of cloudiness.Winter pills were pierced but did not dispense over the winter. Is this related? I have to get out the big testing kit to really see about the chemistry, but never really had to bother since just using the quick sticks got me crystal clear and balanced in the past. Only use the Bs in my pool.
What's my timeline/gameplan moving forward? (FC 10, Ph 8, Alk 80, CYA 100)
