3rd year with TFP and loving the simple, easy, and reliable process. Opened pool last night, circulated pump all night, vacuumed this morning, and got 1st round of test results. Water is very clear and sparkling:
PH 7.2
FC 5.5
CC 0
TA 110
CH 200
CYA 20
Tested CYA 3 times and got same result each time. Ordered new set of chemistry this year. Noticed that R-0012 drops are very tiny - had to use double the drops to get same result as last year. Does that sound right?
So, PoolMath says to add stabilizer to get CYA back to 40, add borax to raise pH, and add bleach to raise FC to shock level. Am I ok to proceed with this, or is there anything else I need to do first?
