Hello friends. Got the new test kit in so gave the water a check. I have been using and adjusting the water on an several year old leslies pool test kit that checks for ph and chlorine.
here is the results from yesterday
FC-5.5
CC-.5
Calcium hardness- 425
Cya- 80
ph-7.2
Total Alk 110
the Ph was high this past week 8.5 so have been working to get it down, I think at least 1 gal of acid. got the ph down and the cya got low so added 2 lbs of baking soda to get it up to the 80.
the above results are using the new tf100 kit.
pool looks great, had some cl2 issues but after about 3 gallons of bleach finally got it up.
1 question I have is about how much bleach, (10%) should I add every day to try and stay steady on the numbers?
South texas heat and pump runs about 8 hours.
