Thanks Richard. First bucket is in. I will re-test tomorrow and then add the 2nd bucket. Question on TA. Do I have it correct that I can raise PH without raising TA, just by running my spa?

Here is the update: I re-figured the pool at 16,550 (with help from the pool store, yuck!) I have my conditioner up to 50ppm It moved about 20 ppm with a gallon of liquid. Does that make sense for 16,550 Gallons? FC = 5ppm PH= 7.8 (needs some acid) I am ready to added calcium. I bought 2, 8lb...

Thank you! I will report back after getting the FC, PH, & conditioner adjusted and re-check the size. It is an odd shape so I'm not confident on the size.

Thanks for responding. This is my first post. I am brand new to this. The height is about 42" and the diameter is about 20"

Can anyone identify the make and size of my filter? It is about 42" tall, not including the pressure gauge. I am brand to taking ownership of the care of my pool. I back washed the filter and then realized I did not know the size of the filter in order to determine how much DE to re-charge...
