Test kit is in my signature, TF-Pro. The pool is less that 3 years old now, last season I followed the pool company's opening recommendations and it worked flawlessly: Aglicide and turn SWG on 72hr boost to bring chlorine level up. My test results are: FC: .5 PH 7.3 TA 40 Salt 3000 I...

Hey guys, I did my normal opening routine this season but having a bit of trouble bringing FC level up. When I opened yesterday am I was at .5 FC. I brought salt up to 3000ppm fired up the Nano plus to 72 hour boost and ran the filter at 50gpm 24/7. My ph was low at 7.3 so I added Soda...

Good stuff, thank you!

Thank you! The only Muriatic Acid available in my area was no listed for use in pools: Klean-Strip Green 1 Gal. Green Muriatic Acid-GKGM75006 - The Home Depot That's why I went with the dry PH down from a pool store. Not sure where I can find pool safe muriatic around here.

Looks like I screwed up. I added 8lbs of dry sstabilizer per pool math's recommendation and now I am up at 70 after 3 days. FC is off the charts though at 17.5.

Update: 3 days ago I added 8 lbs of stabilizer and 2.5lbs of PH down. I have been running the filter 24hrs over the last 5 days. My pH is still at 8.2 but honestly it was higher in the last first two tests, too high to measure. Today's 8.2 is an honest 8.2 and it is definitely trending down...

OK thank you. So for now I boosted the SWG output to raise FC. Tomorrow (when pool store opens) I will add Stabilizer and muriatic acid per pool math. Sound good?

OK, thanks. I am probably reading it wrong but I dont see a 40 ppm CYA on the chart for SWG pool. Looks like 60 is the lowest.

I've added nothing since the pool was opened a few weeks ago, I don't know if the pool company added any.

For comparison, here are the results from Aquachek 7 strip test. These results look good to me. Weird...
