I'm opening up my pool for the season, and I have all my levels set, except for my calcium hardness.
Current CH reading is 180.
I've read varying theories on how important this level is. I have a SWG, fiberglass pool (Corinthian 14 - Latham Pool) and an electric heater.
PoolMath is telling me I need to target 350 CH (meaning i should add 13 lbs of calcium chloride) but, again, reading lots of conflicting theories on the importance here, given my pool is fiberglass and has electric heater.
All my other levels can be seen below:
FC - 7.5
TC - 7.5
CC - 0
PH - 7.3
TA - 70
CH - 180
Salt - 2900 (but this will likely go up...my electronic reader usually takes a few days to register the proper salt level)
Ultimately, I don't want to unnecessarily add more chemicals to the pool if I don't need to.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
