Test results new pool owner

Jul 13, 2016
6
Central pa
Just received the tf-100 test kit and here are the results (new pool, just filled and chemicals added three weeks ago):

pH 7.5
FC 3
CC .5
TC 3.5
CH 125
TA 90
CYA 40-50 (dot disappeared between these two numbers)

I guess the hardness is alittle low (but that shouldnt matter since the pool is vinyl liner??) Also with the low CH this is trowing off the SI as I am getting around -0.45 (but once again should this matter since there is a vinyl liner?)

Water is crystal clear

Located in Northcentral PA

Pool receives direct sunlight from about 8:00am - 6:00 p.m.

current water temp 82

Any other input or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I have been doing my reading on this site for the last week and learning alot. I will be donating some $ here the near future (best site on the web).
 
Welcome to TFP :)

Using bleach or liquid chlorine bring your Free Chlorine to 6 (CYA 50) and stay above 4 FC...

******** just saw, do you have a Salt Water Generator*****

If so, bring your FC to 6 for now and using granular CYA in a sock bring your CYA to 70, it will help your SWG keep the FC up.. :)
