What's causing this pool to turn cloudy with liquid cl.

So first let me preface what we have done already.

Pool has some major blue staining from roof algaecide.(no heater).

We did a standard stain removal process got the pool looking brand new. Sequestratant and absorbic acid. Also draining half the pool.

We did not refill on a filter from the city water.

We then kept some Sequestratant on the pool over the next 2 months. Doing a maintenance dosage. (Jack's)

So after a month of the stain removal process any time we add liquid cl, it clouds the entire pool for 48hrs.

Even if we predilute In a bucket of water.

We tried flocing and waste line, we even used a culator metal carbon membrane filter system, because some of the stain came back on a couple spots.

We've also kept a 4.0 culator in the pool.

We haven't really gone and thrown in a algaecide or enzyme yet, nor phosphate treatment, because other wise the pool looks great no disable algae, cl is holding a standard time for swfl summers.

Am I missing something? Or should we just "shock" and algaecide because somthing is in the water?

For f*** sake all salt cells work on a property of self-cleaning. If the water is mostly in Balance you won't have calcium buildup on the salt cell, or very little...

He had a small pile of calcium in his pool and was upset that we weren't cleaning his salt cell. Dumb cs rep at purechlor doesn't know their own systems.

The last 3 times we opened it up, pretty much spotless. Even have pictures to prove it.

Rant over.
