    Questions TF Test Kit Results

    have you tested your city water to compare ? CH 500 does not mean high :) it depends on city water. TA 400, i never heard. There should be something wrong.

    Just filled up new water, now what?

    During the winter better to keep PH around 7.8 and your CSI would be good.

    TF-100 Test Kit Arrived

    One reminder, I'm not sure why, TA readings will high couple of weeks. That is what I have been told when i purchased refills. My TA was 60 but new reagents had shown 90 :) so better do not do something for TA couple of week.

    Brown spots.

    due to your oak tree . this small things "acorn"have a acid inside and when they got broken leave a brown spots.... U can try one in drive way, you can see that. Worst thing is, not easy to remove even from concrete. looks like they got broken in the pool and pool got this color

    Having Trouble with PH Level

    You have to keep adding Acid, till PH stabilize around 7.8 That mean, whenever PH goes up, reduce 7.2 I believe when your TA will reduce around 70 or little lover PH will be in balance.

    How do you prevent weeds in nearby inground pool ?

    Actually, i ALREADY decided what chemical to be used. But was worry about to use :) If you used imazapyr and no issue for pool then the one which i used should not be a problem ( PRODIAMINE 65 WDG ) THANKS

    Stuck at high pH

    Yes, continue Acid as long as needed until get stable TA. My pool is 12-13K Gallon CYA 30, during the summary daily average was 5/7ppm Your pool is 22K and 7ppm is normal :) By the way, you should increase CYA over 30 otherwise pool is drinking the Chlorine :)

    FC high, TA high

    this problem is exist this year May? I used 4 jug acid while stabilizing TA. But you should have seen at last little reduction if you can try with different PH and TA reagent.
