Yesterday we decided to get our first swim in as the water was finally warm. The kids complaint that the water seemed to irritate their eyes a bit. Mine did as well. The water also had a strong oder. It smelled like chlorine, but not quite.
I shocked last week and the SWG had been on at 35%. I also dumped a bunch of liquid CYA to get it up.
I tested the water today.
FC: 25
CC 0
pH 7.2
TA: 100 (finally down)
CYA: 70
I am not sure if the FC is no hight to swim or the pH is a bit low or a combo. I am leaving the SWG and solar cover off until thursday or Friday to get the FC down. I also lowered the water by 1" to get the skimmer flowing better.
Sounds like the right plan? Should I wait until the FC is under 12 to swim? Should be a day or two in the hot Florida sun right now.
