April 3rd Pool Opening in Ottawa, Canada

The temperature hit about 15 degrees (C) this past weekend and the ice finally melted off the black pool cover. The water on top of the cover was crystal clear and very very cold, so I thought I'd remove the cover and let it flow into the pool (before it turned murky with algae) .... I'll turn the pump on this coming weekend and do a backwash, then I'll add a bag of salt and run the filter for 24 hours and take some Chlorine and PH balance readings - I'll post the numbers here.
