Heres the short of it. Water is clear with visible algae on bottom and sides (when brushed last nite,green cloud appears).
I had algae a little over a week ago and dumped 4 lbs of 99 proof dichlor (strong stuff) into pool. I went away on vacation
for the week and wanted this stuff gone. Tested FC in the morning before I left. 30PPM . Came home yesterday early evening
with these results using TF-100 kit. FC 19PPM CYA about 90PPM. Ph appears to be 7.5 but who knows with FC so high
TA is unknown. I used the kit as described. Mixed in chemical solution turns green, slowly add other chemical and solution
turns yellow (high FC). Color is supposed to change to red to determine TA.After about 30 drops,which would have been
a TA of 300, I gave up as solution was still yellow? Take care of algae first, then attempt PH and TA adjustments? Oh
and the CC level was 1PPM but does that matter I can see the algae. Thanks
