Hi.
After much reading, I am ready to clean my green swamp. Was thinking of starting today, but, rain is in the forecast for a couple of days this week, so, hopefully I can start ASAP.
I did some testing yesterday and this is what I came up with.
PH 8.2
CYA 20 ( Down from 120 last october, but due to leak pool emptied half way)
TA 300
CH 80
Can I leave the CYA at 20 or should I increase it to 30?
I am lowering the PH to 7.3 with muriatic acid. Is that correct?
I used pool calculator ans it says I need 482 oz of bleach 8.25% from walmart. I have bought 12 bottles of 121 oz, that's all they had. Will buy about 12 more, just to make sure I don't run out.
Any suggestions before I get started. First time pool owner, have owned the pool only during the winter.
