Pool Maintenance?

Question

I just got my pools pH level down to around 7.4. What should I add next? There is a ton of algae. Should I brush the sides and bottom of the pool and use algaecide or should I shock it first. I'm a little concerned about the amount of chemicals because there is already a gallon of muriatic acid in it from yesterday, when the pH was balanced. What step should I take next?

Answer 1

brush the sides and bottom first then add algaecide wait 24 hours then backwash filter add chemicals use test kit to see what clorine ph level is clorine should be 3.0 and ph should be 7.2   swimming pool company owner eleven years experince
