Our pool is Green We are not holding chlorine levels for more than 2 days pH is normal alkalinity is normal Have not put stabiliser in for 2 months yet the reading is 130 and rising?

It takes work. I have the same problem now as is the case almost every spring. I'd suggest adding algaecide (once a week), chlorine (whenever needed to maintain levels), and then No-phos (once a week). Brush all surfaces of the pool every other day. Vacumn twice a week. Backwash your filter whenever your pressure gauge tells you to...it will accumulate alot of debis if you follow this. Your pool should slowly turn around, mine is. After you have near clear water, you can just use the No-phos and it will take out the food from the water that the algae needs to survive. I missed one weekend treatment with the No-phos and I had an algae bloom, not fun. A: If the 130 reading is your conditioner level then it is too high. You'll have to pump off up to several thousand gallons of water and refill in order to dilute the conditioner level. It should be no higher than 100 ppm. Let your filter run for at least 24 hrs before adding chlorine. Add chlorine at 12.5% strength - see bottle label - add 4 gal of chlorine all at the same time - run the filter for 24/7, brush 2 - 3 times daily - the entire surface- including corners, love seats etc. If your algae bloom is severe - you may also add Yellow Treat by United Chemical. FOLLOW THE CONTAINER'S INSTRUCTIONS TO THE LETTER. Clean your filter as needed

• read the gage. You may not need the No-phos. Adjust the rest of

you pool chemical levels as chlorine levels get back to 3.0 or less 00 7.6 pH, 80 -120 alkalinity. In the future, maintain your chemical levels at optimum levels and keep your filter clean and conditioner level at about 60 to 80 ppm thru the summer. k
