test strips tend to be very inaccurate and so its hard to know whats up with them and there is no way to know how far off they might be.
as another temporary hold over, you can get a cheap chlorine / pH test kit at walmart for about 7$. Its somewhat accurate enough to keep you from getting algae. Much more so than the test strips are.
For right now, the main thing is your pH and chlorine. Dont worry about testing for anything else till your kit shows up.
if you PH is above 8, you will need to use Muriatic acid to bring it down.
If ph is below 7.2, you generally use Soda Ash or Borax to raise it.
Your Stabilizer is 0. It is not a naturally occuring chemical in any source of water.
If I were you, I would go ahead and add 4 lbs of Stabilier to the pool. That will help with the sun burning off chlorine. Otherwise you have to run the SWG too much.
In a 16K gallon pool, 4 lbs of stabilizer will put you at about 30ppm. This will do fine until you get a test kit.
your SWG isnt intended to add a lot of chlorine quickly, which you need to do in fairly short order. Recommend to use Bleach to initially raise your FC to 3 after you've added the stabilizer.
in 16K gallon pool, about 1/2 gallon of 8.25 concentrated regular plain old bleach will put you right about 3 ppm chlorine.
To add bleach, have pump running and then pour it slowly in front of a return.
To add stabilizer, pour it into an old sock and tie the end of the sock closed. Then put it in the skimmer. Give it a squeeze now and then to help it dissolve. Its rather slow.
repeat until all of 4 lbs has been dissolved.
Here is another article you need to get familiar with rather quickly. The SWG only makes chlorine when pump is running, so you have balance out the pump run time needed to keep your pool clean, usually 4 hrs is long enough for that, but you may need longer run time so the SWG will make the proper amount of chlorine. Its will take you a while of adjusting run time and SWG percentage output and testing the FC in order to finally get it all worked out. Just one more reason you need that good test kit. You have to have accuracy, or you will end up in trouble.
