Thank you. CL is about an 8 now (oops). Adding stabilizer using sock method now. :cheers:

Hi, thank you for the fast response. I didn't test CYA as this is a fresh fill. Was just assuming there isn't CYA in our tap water?!?

Hello everyone. I was hoping you could guide me in which order I need to add the chemicals to balance our water. Here are my numbers... FC 0 CC 0 TA125 PH 7.8 CH 130 My guess is to add muratic to lower ph, but idk honestly!

Yeah, we figured that out the hard way. ? But it's all good. Except for another plumbing issue by the skimmer and another drain down. ? Was looking on track tho and we'll get back there quickly. But, I also got a good deal on gallon jugs of 10% chlorine...?

I just took another test and it was a 10 ml test with one scoop...which took 45 drops before turning clear. Then I added five drops of 003, swirled and it took one drop of 871to turn clear again? Does this sound right?

Thank you! It went pink...or should I say more like reddish purple?! And as I was saying, I put 45 drops and it wasn't even lightening it up! :oops: That, was my concern. Because the chlorine was put in there early afternoon and this was around 6ish that it was tested. I just thought there was...

I guess I was not understanding this test...or how to do the calculations. I thought that reading was showing the chlorine level like off the charts. I think I understand it now. I know how to SLAM and all that...I've been following you guys for years and tell everyone your method and recommend...

Lol....I mean it IS green...but it isn't green like it was before we drained it!!

The water isn't even green. Here I will show you a sample.

I guess I'm missing something here. We literally JUST filled this pool from empty a week ago. Why would I need to empty it?
