Just completed my inground pool! I was able to do the entire installation myself with the help of friends and family willing to sweat it out!
28000 gallon True L 40X32X16
Hayward 1-1/2 pump
Hayward SWG
Hayward 244 Sand Filter
3 Skimmers
2 bottom drains
4 returns
Just confirmed my own water test from Taylor k-6000 with the Leslie pools here in town to see if I was close:
FC 2.5
PH 7.6
TA 80
CYA 10 (i just added 10 lbs tonight after backwashing)
CH 125( not to concerned as I have a vinyl liner)
TDS 2000
Salt 3400
After reading the post "water balance for SWG" it looks like i need to get CYA to 70? I have never seen recommends this high and was wondering what effects this will have on PH or other parts of the pool?
I was also confused on how you would shock a SWG pool if you follow the BBB method? I assume some huge amounts of bleach? I hope this is not needed...but I dont want to be scrambling either.
Thanks for any advice!
