Here is something, I guess I don't understand and perhaps I should look elsewhere for the answer. But I was saying my chlorine level was really high. I checked it later yesterday after my initial post because I increased the chlorinator % since I initially thought it was algae. So, with my testing, I had it at 15 last night prior to OCLT. (Clearly I don't know what the heck I am doing yet).
I think I am calculating it wrong? I'm using the k2006 Taylor Kit for the first time. Yesterday I filled it to 28 mL. Used a couple scoops of the powder. And it took about 75 drops to turn it clear. So I just multiplied 75 by .2 and that is how I got 15pm for the chlorine.
Today, our pool person, also using a taylor kit, filled hers to 10 mL. Took her 32 drops to turn it clear. And she told me the chlorine was at 8pm. She divided that in half and then multiplied that by .5.
Using the 10mL is the way to go to save the reagent so I'm going to use that moving forward. But I swear every video I see just does the initial multiplying and doesn't cut it in half like she did. I feel like that is what the instructions say too. What am I missing here?
