    First Test Results

    My FC is coming down (finally at 9.5ppm) I was able to get a good pH test. With my additions of CYA to try and slowly raise it, my pH is sitting around 7.0-7.2. Should I add some borax to increase to 7.4ish and retest in a week?

    Finally got around to testing and CH was 120 and TA was 200.

    Thanks for the information. I'll grab a sample once this weather passes and give it a test.

    Good info, thanks! Yes, agree swimming would be difficult in that temperature. It would be firing up the hot tub.

    Appreciate the help. A few more questions. If the test comes back fine, do I leave SWG off until FC levels come down a bit? My variable speed pump runs 24 hours so I’d probably need to set at a very low level going forward in the winter. Also is the pool safe to use as is or do I need the FC...

    Water looks crystal clear but this is my first pool and I guess I am not sure what to look for with Algae. But from what I can see, there isn't anything growing anywhere in the water.

    Will definitely do the test tonight. I do have a water softener but the pool autofil isn't tied into it. The pool is also uncovered outside.

    Thanks and definitely appreciate the advice. I was defintely curious on the FC on this first test which is why I did the 0.2 but going forward I will stick with the 0.5 approach. I will retest TA and report back. Update: retested TA and it ended up being 50 instead of 40. I am going to look...

    Good morning. I just completed my first test results with Taylor K-2006Salt kit. Here are my results: I believe it is recommeded to adjust TA first and looking at the pool math app it says to add 6lbs 7ozs of Baking Soda. Would it be best to add a little at a time and retest vs dumpming in...

    Heater/Chiller + Gas Heater .... what order?

    Did you ever get this sorted out? I have the same equipment installed but I feel like my Aqualink isn't configured correctly to take advantage of both systems.
