Counting - 16 days, 48 gallons, 10-12% liquid chlorine at $4.24/per gal, I am starting on 3rd set of 6 cases. (FYI: Pool store is still guaranteeing the chlorine, too, and my testing as validation, I am running at 12% every gallon, from 2 different stores).
--------------------------------------------------------
All, want to update you - finally cleared the hump and making the turn down, for the first time, my numbers are dropping, not fast, but enough to give me hope. My OCLT last night was 1.5 and today Houston over 90 degrees 14 hours of sun, 12 hours between test lose 54 and stayed above target (Oh, yea!
), and yes the Mustard monster is on the run. Pool still clear and clean, brushing daily (mustard stain, 4xday), but have a couple of questions:
1) PH and muratic acid, can't test, do I need to do anything yet (it's been a while)?
2) Will all of this stuff I have been doing - mess with my plaster?
3) Liquid Chlorine residuals - I know of the Salt - are there other things? do I need to test? take action? to anything to the pool to offset 48+ gallons I have dumped into it?
Well, good night and (dang I can't wait to go swimming again)!
Thanks for listening and as always any feedback (bad or good) will be well received.
