Hi-
I'm a brand new saltwater pool owner, and I'm clueless.
I don't have one of the really good test kits yet, but here's what I can figure out from reading a test strip:
FC: 0 (I know this is not good.)
ph: 6.8-7.2
TA: 120
TH: 200
CYA: 30-50
Water was cloudy but pool techs came yesterday and did some things to it and the water is much better, not crystal clear, but I can see the bottom now.
I know I have to get chlorine in the pool somehow. It seems like I can just add bleach? Is that correct? If so, I have no idea how much to add.
I haven't figured out how to get my SWG working yet or I would just use that.
So, two main questions:
1. Do I just add bleach and if so, how much?
2. Is it safe to be in this water right now?
Thanks!
