Folks,,
The pool builder gave my pool an initial treatment on 7/26. I failed to record the readings..
I have since been testing since 7/28 using the Taylor K-2006 kit..
Below are my findings..
The initial treatment by builder was shock/ stabilizer conditioner/ and a hexaborate water harmonizer.
My readings on 7/27
FC .4
CC 3.2
PH 7
ALK 30
CH 150
Did not measure CYA :?:
Added some shock to increase FC and Baking Soda to increase PH..
Readings on 7/28
FC 8.8
CC .8
PH 7.3
ALK 70
CH 180
CYA 43
Pump has been running 23 hrs. per day since startup. We had some rain yesterday several times..
I turned the chlorine feeder down to 1/2, builder had it on max. added 13.3 oz baking soda to increase the PH..
Am I on the right road? Your help is greatly appreciated.
