Howdy! (a traditional Aggie greeting)
Some might say I should be brilliant at math, considering how many times I took it at Texas A&M. Although the number of times taken is greater than the number of times passed...
Reading a forum reply, I learned the PoolMath app can suggest a SWG setting so I decided to test it out, but I'm a little confused by some of what it's telling me.
SWG = IC-40
Pump and SWG run 4 hours per day
Typical output is around 60%, but varies. We've had lots of rain. We also have trees (good for shade, bad for leaves).
CYA = 70
When I went to log a chemical addition and told it SWG, I set 24-hr output at 1.4 ppm, based on the in-app chart. I set pump run time to 4 hours and SWG% to 60. Poolmath said the FC generated would be 1.1 ppm. That's where I'm confused by the math.
So I set it to run at 100% for 24 hours and it would produce 11.0 ppm. That seems way too high, for an SWG that creates 1.4 ppm per day for a 40K gallon pool.
What am I missing?
