Hi there -
Brand new pool owner.... 8,000 gallons, fiberglass, iChor 30 SWG, Pentair Superflo pump, and Pentair SD40 sand filter . I've started to try and learn chemistry and read as much as I can here, but I seem to have a rare problem; my FC is testing very high. I am testing using Aquachek test strips, and have purchased a more reliable test kit, but it hasn't arrived yet.
About 10 days ago, when the installation company came to clean the pool and "hand us the keys" they added 1 gallon of liquid shock, and set the iChor at 33%. Should I dramatically decrease the iChor output and monitor daily? Should I turn it to 0?
Thanks - I really appreciate the help and forgiveness if I have asked dumb questions. If I'm missing anything that would be valuable, please let me know.
