Hoping someone has better searching/filing skills than I do..
A long while ago I recall reading one or two posts on the recommended approach to start adding chemicals, for a brand new pool, using a SWG. I think I recall the recommendation was to *not* turn on the SWG right away but by first reaching the target chlorine levels with a one-off dump of liquid chlorine - or perhaps a few days of trichlor/dichlor to also get to the right level of CYA - and then switch to the SWG for daily chlorine top-ups once the chlorine and CYA are at target.. I think this is was the recommendation at least. could be mistaken.
Can't find those posts. If anyone recalls what I'm referring to, grateful if you could link. If you don't, but you can reiterate the recommended solution, that's v helpful too!
Thx
