Hi all!
I've been reading the Pool School and visiting the forums for quite some time before posting. I've finally made the switch to BBB and just got some test results back, and wondering how I'm doing so far.
FC - 3.97
CC - 0.11
pH - 7.5
CH - 206
TA - 75
CYA - 125
Copper 0
Iron 0
Total Cholorine??? 4.08 (didn't see this in pool school, not sure of it's significance)
I have a slight bit of algae apparently on the bottom. It appears blue and clear, but if I run a brush along the bottom I see a little greenish brown trail.
The pool store seemed concerned about the TA being low, and wanted to sell me Alk. increaser, but said everything else was fine. However, here: http://www.troublefreepool.com/pool-school/recommended_levels it appears my TA is fine, but CYA high and CH getting there, with the disclaimer that not all levels are ideal in all situations.
Thoughts? Should I concern myself with the TA? Is the CYA at a problem level?
Thanks for any and all advice!
