Hey everyone.... glad to be back for another season. Just filled my pool from my underground aquifer and tested it with my NEW K100 test-kit. Cl. below .5; Br. below 1; Ph. below 6.8; FC-0; Calcium hardness-250ppm; Total Alkalinity- 60 and cya-0. Pool is clear but I know that will change if left untreated. What and how much do you suggest I need?
Just filled

Just went to pool math... should I just follow their suggestions? and what do I use for a "stabilizer"?, also at the bottom "SWG" reads 1; Normal: 1 to 3; Shock: 10 and mustard algae shock: 12? I don't know what that means....any help?
You want to use "normal". SWG is for people with a saltwater generator and the shock levels are for people with algae.
Rather than me typing my fingers down to bubs, I'll refer you to some pages that have already been typed.
ABCs of Pool Water Chemistry gets you speaking the lingo
Pool School - Recommended Levels is self-explanatory
Pool School - Recommended Pool Chemicals tells you what chemical fixes what and how to add it
Pool School - PoolMath explains all the little tricks to use poolmath to figure how much to add
Thanks for the reference material Richard320, I've read them and found them quit helpful. I'll use them often.
