Re: HELP PLEASE!! ok then that makes sense. Ignore me then :cheers:

Re: HELP PLEASE!! Im not a pro by any means but id shock the Crud out of. Higher than your 12. Thats what i did. Couple of days I was good. I also assume your pump has been running non stop. But with it being an above ground pool why dont ya drain it, clean and refill? Easier than an IGP

the water is pretty clear. It was only a lil cloudy to begin with.. I have to wait for more of the powder to come in tomorrow.

Checked this morning before work FC 10 CC .5 When I checked last night it was about 6pm and still had several hours of direct sun.

Just checked it tonight FC 14 CC 1 Is the drop too rapid from the readings this morning? The water is still pretty clear. I just cant seem to get accurate readings of late.

Ok thank you. im gonna check again tonight

Yea I double checked and its correct. Im at a loss and not sure what to do next

So my chlorine readings are inconsistant. I was trying to bring my chlorine level up to shock again last night. Before I did so FC was 16.5 and CC 1 I added 4 gallons of chlorox which according to the chart should have brought it up to 26. The pool circulated for 3 1/2 hours and i tried to check...

I mean open to swimmers. I dont actually close the pool.

the water has been really clear. Just starting to get slightly cloudy but not much. With the TA that high is it bad to open the pool? Or should I wait

FC 11.5 CC .5 TA 230 CYA 60 CH 120 PH 7.8 Just added a gal of muratic acid. Ive had a hard time trying to get the TA down. Also had the pool at shock level for a lil bit trying top get the CC down. So its on its way down to normal level. Is .5 ok. And can leaves etc dropping in the pool be the...

How does the water temp affect the CYA readings?

I know I know. I was just curious to what they showed compared to what mine were since I thought the chlorine reading was wrong.
