Hello; I purchased a Taylor test kit after reading other people's posts. Here are my numbers: FC=10ppm {20 x .5); TC= .4ppm; PH= 7.4-7.6 (This is the first time all season I have been able to get my PH up. last Thursday I put in PH UP) Alkalinity: 200ppm; calcium hardness: 100 ppm and CYA: 80ppm
Additionally, I had algae early in the season and used non-foaming algaecide which foamed. It took over two weeks to get it all out. I also noticed that my stairs stained this year, and I have a few places where 'algae looking' stains are appearing on the bottom of vinyl liner. Before I purchased more chemicals (I have a bunch after the algae incident Clorox, liquid chlorine, etc) I would ask for your assistance. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
**I just re-did the Calcium hardness test with the 25ml adjustment and after the R-0011L, the sample turned blue, so my CH zero***
