Thank you, Swami

To adjust CH the Calculator suggests to replace 19% of the pool water. I know this is the solution. However, where I am Ben Lomond California we have a drought and water is restricted. Is there another way to solve the problem?

The water looks clean and clear. I have read things from the Pool School. And for the last 9 months I have been testing for: FC and PH daily. TA, CH, and CY once a week. I will reread and study the articles you have suggested. - - - Updated - - - Yes, I am starting out. I joined the TFP site...

CSI did show to be-0.6 as you predicted. I will keep PH in the range 7.5 to 7.8 as you suggest. What do I do about the CH? And what range should CH be in?

Daily I add Chlorine and Muriatic Acid based on the Pool Calculator.

Hello, Here are my pool water readings: FC = 8 Ph = 7.2 TA = 40 CH = 480 CY = 50 From the attachment you'll see that TA keeps going down and CH keeps increasing. What should I do? Thanks, Swami

Yes, sounds logical, thanks.

Thanks Robbie for all your help. Best wishes, Swami

Hi, For the last two days the pool has passed the OCLT, it is zero. Here are the all the test results: FC=9 (goes down by 2 every day. Since CY is 50 shall I keep it between 4 and 6) CC=0 pH=7.6 (no one has used the pool to swim in the last 25 years) TA=140 (pH & TA relationship is confusing...

Do I need to SLAM. The pool is not green. The water is clear, except there is a lot of white powdery stuff on the bottom. I am vacuuming and backwashing daily.

Hello, The pool is refilled with 60% fresh water, here are the test results: FC = 16 CC = 0 pH = 7.3 TA = 150 CH = 320 CYA = 50 What is the first adjustment to do when the pool was refilled? What would be the second adjustment? Thanks, Swami

I drained 60% of the pool today. Now, refilling has started. When the pool is filled, I'll do the tests and report. Might be a few days. Thanks, Swami

Thank you all. Best wishes, Swami

Greetings, I have figured out most of the acronyms used here, but what do these mean: 1. FAS-DPD 2. In the TF-100 kit, what does TF stand for? 3. OTO chlorine test. Thanks, Swami
