Just got my test kit.

All I know is this…… my levels may not be what they need to be yet……. But since coming here and learning the little amount I have from the information and all you hear, my water is already looking better than ever! And my equipment not working so hard and loud!

25 mph wind where I am today and I live on the water so it’s even more, that’s why the water is so active. It’s blowing all over

You got this I promise!! We all started not knowing but after summer you'll be a pro

I have those tiles too!! I love them

Tested FC a few minutes ago. It’s now 14.5 with swg off. My desired range given the CYA is 6-10. Should I go ahead and turn swg back on?

Is setting it at 45 percent with pump running 12 hours a day a good place to start and see where it holds?

I would set the SWCG to generate 3 ppm FC per day to start and see what the testing tells you.

 

[Macyc]

How do I know what 3 ppm is? Is there a formula? My swg goes by percents. I don’t know what percent equals 3 ppm FC a day would be.

If you had filled out your signature I could do it for you --- but without pool volume and SWCG model, cannot help.

I’ll fill it out….. it’s 25,000 gallon. I have a pentair intellichlor ic40.

 

[Macyc]

I filled it out. Hopefully I did so correctly

I’ll fill it out….. it’s 25,000 gallon. I have a pentair intellichlor ic40.

At 80% generation, you need to run it 14 hours a day to generate 3 ppm FC.

 

[Macyc]

Ok so at 14.5 FC should I go ahead and start it back up today if I want 6-10 ideal range or wait until tomorrow?

 

[mknauss]

Start it first thing tomorrow.

I hate to brag but, I just tested FC again for practice and didn’t have to look at directions . A few days ago, it seemed so confusing. Here I am, just a few days later……….. who knew
