Thanks for the quick response. For now I'm using an inline chrorinator. I use 99% 3 inch tabs from Clorox. The pool guy was here a couple of weeks ago and dumped a jug of liquid chlorine. The water is crystal clear, no leaves or debris may be a bit of dust from the construction and plaster...

So this is my 1st test with my new Taylor recommended tester, hopefully I did this right. Ph = 8.00 Acid Demand = 2 drops for 7.4 ph CYA = 50 ppm Chlorine Free = 7 ppm CC = 1 ppm TA = 60 ppm CH = 400 ppm Please let me know what you guys think, this is a NEW pool about 3 weeks old now. Thanks...

I ordered them but Amazon will take a bit of time to deliver them. The estimated date is Nov 19-21 :( I did test the PH and it's so low that it doesn't even register in the test.

Great, thanks for the response. So it would be safe to swim in it after 3-4 days?

Hello Guys, I my pool just finished getting built here in Kissimmee, FL and I have a concern. The builder a GC came over and dumped 8 gallons of muriatic acid in the just filled pool. I asked why and he said to clean the plaster dust and residue. He said it's safe to swim in it in 3-4 days...
