I have a 15ft by 14 inch above ground pool with approx.. 4400 gallons of water. If there is no chlorine level, how many 1 inch tablets do I put in my filter and how long should it take to dissolve?

I took a water sample and was told combined chlorine is to high . they told me to add 18 lb of alkalinity booster. then add hardness increaser.then add 4 lb of shock with or without chlorine.does this sound correct since the combined is high now.

I have a 6,000 gallon pool with a small water feature installed in 1995. It uses a Aqua Rite chlorine generator and here lately the only way I can get it to make chlorine is to put it in the super chlorinate mode. I uderstand the cells onlt last 3-4 years, so I might be on borrowed time. Before I shell out the 400 pluse for a new cell are there any tests that can be done. Below are the numbers from the pool store and the unit itself.
Free Chlorine .2ppm
Total Chlorine .2ppm
Combined Chloring .2ppm
pH 8.2
Hardness 230 ppm
Alkalinity 95ppm
Cyanuric Acid 50ppm
Salt 3,300
Pool Temp 76
Cell Voltage 26
Cell Current 6.08
Desired Output 80 percent
Instant Salinity 3,100
Product Name AL-0
Software 1.40
Many thanks for the help/advice

Our pool maintenance man pours 2.5kg powder in to our 17,000 swimming pool measure.
on the bottle it says to put in bucket mix 900grm then add in to pool.
It then strip out all Chl level, he also pours it directly in to the pool with out measuring. He has been doing this over the last month. He has not been telling me (swim Teacher in private schl)I'm then entering straight after he has addedthis in to the pool for 8/9 hrs at a time. I have got burns in & around my mouth in my lungs eye nose ect., I have been coughing up blood have LRTI with Pleurisy, do u think the chemicals added to the pool has caused his?

Is it dangerous to add chlorine to a small pool (still) no filter connected, while children are swimming in the pool, I was present when this happened with the adult there stating that they mix the chlorine up with their movement (it seemed to to a christalized chlorine which he grabbed a handful and threw it in)this caused me concern, but as I have no experience with pools I would like to know if this is dangerous.
