Adding calcium chloride

[crockettjeanne]

Hello, current readings for gunnite pool…

FC 5
Ph 7.8
Cya 60
Salt 3300
CH 250
Temp 76
Water sparkling and clear

Pool math says to add 17 lbs of calcium chloride to raise CH to 350. What is the best process to add and will I raise the salt too high? Will I effect the other levels that I finally got perfect? Also, is turning the SWG to 0% enough?

No real need to add calcium. 250 ppm CH is fine.
Calcium products should be spread across the surface of the deep end of the pool.

Check FC. It may drop when you add the calcium.
