High chlorine

I've begun to trust people here much more than our pool store :roll:

I have a SWG in our pool 10800 gal. I've had the intellichlor at 0% for over a week but the chlorine is still wayyyy high, is there anyway of lowering it?? The water is clear, 60 degrees (burrrrrrr)

FC 14
CC .5
TC 14.5
PH 7.5
CH 600
CYA 80

Thanks in advance for any help.

One way would be to reduce pump run time.

Is the pool covered?

I say do nothing. If the water's 60 degrees, no one's getting in anyway. It'll go down eventually with the SWG off. 14 is not all that high for 80 CYA.

I agree with Richard, but you can turn the SWG off also.

Your chlorine is 14 ppm?

This is my first winter....water temp is 52* and chlorine consumption is real slow. I'm adding about 40 oz of liquid 10% a week and easily maintaining 5PPM FC :-D
