Okay, so I'm curious. Has anyone here actually worked at a pool store. I'm curious because I took my tests and then took them into a pool store. Everyone here is saying your own testing is more accurate, but I'm not sure..."why". Here are my readings followed by the pool store:
TF100 Tests:
FC: 4.5
CC: 0
pH 7.8
TA 30
CYA 60
Water Temp: 63
Pool Store tests:
FC: 2
CC: 0
pH: 7.0
TA: 80
CH: 300
CYA: 70
They ran all tests in like a total of 30 secs. The reason I am asking is that my builder requires monthly faxes from a pool store showing that I am caring for my pool appropriately and will not accept mine unless I am "certified". Are all of the pool store guys really "certified"?
Just wondering...
