Hello community, I received my test kit over the weekend, results below.
FC= 12
PH= 7.8
TA= 130
CH= 380
CYA= 100+
CC= 0.5
Water Temp= 68F
According to TFPC method my CYA was way too high, I decided to drain half my pool 7K gallons. Interestingly during this process I measured and discovered I only have a 15,000 gallon versus a 24,000 gallon pool. Will be much cheaper to purchase a SWG system now. Enough ranting, I am confused about how much chlorine to add now that I replenished pool with fresh water. I am at work right now finished filling last night, I want to swing by store and pick-up liquid bleach. Should I begin the S-L-A-M process or test water and balance out. I plugged in some numbers on Pool Math and found if I wanted to shock at a level of 18 starting from 0 FC, I would need to add 3 gallons + 1 quart of 8.25% bleach. Seems kind of low for slamming. I read another post "1st SLAM" the guy is using 30 gallons of clorox and still cant raise the FC high enough for his 24000 gallon pool. I appreciate your help with this.
