Been lurking around trying to learn.
New above ground 14x38 Intex pool. Cheapo filter that comes in kit...
Setting up this weekend.
Stopped at pool place to get water tested......Well water.
FC .08
TC.08
CC 0
PH 7.8
HARDNESS 272
Alkalinity 212
CYA 2
Copper .1
Iron .1
Of course he tried selling me Chlorinator dispenser, tablets, PH down, and a FC and PH test kit. And then said you may want some pH up incase it goes to low.
I asked about using Muratic acid rather than PH down and he said ohhhh we don't sell that here.
Anyhow, do I bring to a FC shock level on startup?
Any pointers on a new startup with the water results above?
I have no idea what I am doing other than browsing around on here.
Thanks for your time! Brian
