Hello all, new member and fairly new pool owner here. First let me give you a quick breakdown, pool completed beginning of June, started by following the builders directions of loading the chlorinator with 10 3in tabs and just checking ch and ph with basic kit he gave me. Within 2 1/2 months my CYA was at 60 from the test at a pool store……I know, but he is someone I know and trust in just the testing. Lurked around here for a few months and started following your guidelines. Switched to bleach, added salt and a tiny bit of borate just to start. Used a Taylor drop kit at home just monitoring ch, ph, and alk. Already ordered the k-2006 and waiting on it. Pool looks awesome, crystal clear, which was definitively a result of adding ZeoFibre and great feeling. Latest test results are…
FAC-6
TAC-6
CC-0.2
CH-350
CYA-50
TA-100
pH-7.5
salt-1900
borate 5
Only problem I encounter is having to add muriatic acid daily because of rising ph daily. I have tried at a TA of 80 and 90 but still had the problem, raised it back between 100-110 as the pebble manufacturer recommends. Is this simply from a still new pool? any help is appreciated. Oh, by the way, the ozonator and Nature 2 were installed by the builder even though we didn't pay for it. I use the mineral pack and all the metals testing have been fine and the ozone thing is running just for giggles, not that I think it does much.
