Hi All-
I became a first time pool owner last fall and I'm anxious for our first full season. We had the pool re-surfaced and re-tiled after moving in and I've been maintaining it with liquid chlorine and acid over the winter (following the BBB method) after the initial start-up. I hope to upgrade all of the equipment and add a SWG system, but it may be a few more months before it happens. Below are my latest numbers. Any recommendations on where things need to be for now using liquid chlorine as well as when I move to salt?
Water Temp: 72
FC: 1.5
CC: 0
PH: 7.8 (I maintain it between 7.4 and 7.8)
TA: 80
CH: 280
CYA: 20 - 25
The CYA was 30 after adding stabilizer after the intial start up. Now that it's getting warmer I assume I should get this up?
