Dumped 10 gallons of liquid chlorine 10% in pool around 9:00PM. All readings are sky high after an hour. Will check in morning. 2 gallon bucket test is still holding FC but loosing just a little since this morning in full sun. Its at 2.4 FC right now. CYA is 45 in bucket. Tested with my new K-2006 kit.

Thanks for reply. Tested ammonia first time and reads yellow 0. Problem not ammonia? Tested chlorine with Taylor 0 free chl. Nitrates 2ppm. Bought the 12 gallons of liquid chlorine. Should I dump?

Hello all, new member here and having some troubles. I can not hold any chlrine in pool. Pool reads 0 chlorine after heavy super chlorination. I'm pool owner for 3 years never had any problems. 23,000 gallon concrete pool with D.E Filter. Pool is almost 20 years old. All chemicals are at ideal levels via strips and 3 pool store test readings except free chlorine reading 0. Pool water is crystal clear and no one has been in yet this season. I shock with calchypo shock and use dichlor tabs. Latest test via Leslies. All test were comparable to each other. FC 0 TC 0 PH 7.6 TA 120 CYA 30 CAl hardness 160 TDS 500 Nitrates 2ppm Phosphates 300ppm. I put 1 liter of pool perfect with phos free in. Just got the Taylor 2006 kit. I did a 2 gallon bucket test with 1.5tsp of bleach and its holding well. I haven't done an ammonia test yet but I'm getting ready to buy 12 gallons of liquid chlorine and dump it in. Am I on the right path? from what I read it's ammonia and I have to burn it out. Thanks Mark
