I'm still checking numbers in Poolmath.
Have you added any other chemicals using pool math, your new test kit, and that gallon size that did in fact put the levels where you expected them to go?
I've actually gotten it to hit from 5 to 14.5 with that amount of chlorine being added with several different scenarios, but none of which makes a lot of sense, nor would be an appropriate fix, or simple adjustment for you. Pool Math has always been nothing but extremely accurate anytime I've ever used it, unless I personally made an error.
Aside from the wrong amount of chlorine being added to the pool, testing error of the actual starting level, gallon size discrepancy, or wrong bleach concentration being put in, I'm not getting very far, very fast on determining the cause of the unexpected rise. I'm still working to try to determine what exactly did happened, how we can go about correcting it, to ensure it doesn't happen again. I'll let you know if/when I come up with something else.
Also if you are concerned about the 16ppm for 40CYA since you are at 33 CYA, just split the difference between the 12 and 16 shock levels, and maintain the FC at 14ppm, at least until we can get all the other issues with the calculations figured out 1st.
