Hi - so we purchased a house with a pool and have been using a pool company for a couple of months now to manage it. I'm ready to move on from that and handle it myself, but really feeling lost with what to do. Maybe I'm just overthinking stuff but don't want to mess anything up... I have all the readings from the pool company below as well as what they added on each visit:
I've recently added a WaterGuru so that I have automatic daily readings and the results of those so far are below:
I can now see that my CYA levels are way too high and from what I've read, sounds like I'm gonna need to drain most of the 16,500 gallon pool. I can't understand why the pool company would not have been checking that... is that normal?
So my questions are mainly based around the below:
What chemicals should I be getting to take this over myself? And do I just do the readings, dump into the Pool Math app and do as it says?
Is there any maintenance I need to be doing on the equipment below?
