I just started to monitor my pool chemicals. I just got it put up this weekend. I would like for you to review what I have and let me know if I am on the right path and I am reading these numbers correctly. I have read through the Pool School and took notes along the way. Now lets see if I can pass the test..
Here is what I have..
Date:4/30/2013
Weather:Cloudy 64 degrees
FC- Free Chlorine: 7.5
CC - Combined Cloramines - .5
TC- Total Chlorine (FC+CC): 8
PH - 7.5
TA - 180
CH - 100
CYA - 30
Looking at my numbers and what I read, I believe that I need to put some Borax in the pool to raise my PH a little. And add some conditioner to raise the CYA. Is this correct?
I have also created a Excel spread sheet that I am tracking my day to day numbers and what is added to the pool, so it will teach me along the way.
Thanks in advance,
