FC 2ppm CC 0 pH 7.2 I just lowered it with some Muriatic acid TA 140 CH 225 CYA 20 Water temperature: I need to buy a thermometer I am curious to know how my measures will impact how the pool app calculates the amount of Bleach needed. Fyi, I have the free version and have not entered my...

I must be missing something, I used the pool app to determine how much Bleach I need to increase the FC from .5ppm to 6ppm. I tried it with a CYA level of 40 and 80 and it appears that with more CYA I need more Bleach?! Sew attached

I dissolved 3lbs of Clorox branded dry stabilizer over a 48h period, and my CYA is not even at 20 yet?! I will add more stabilizers tomorrow. Quick question: If the CYA helps to protect your chlorine why does it take more liquid chlorine to increase my ppm if I have more CYA? For example for a...

I purchased 2 as I need 5 pounds, but I'm a little worried by the clorox brand since the CYA was one of my issues before I emptied the pool, if you think I shouldn't use the clorox dry stabilizer let me know! I only bought it since it will arrive soon and I can return it. Thank you

Thank you, Do you have any recommendations on the brand or specifics for the dry stabilizer? I can purchase it from Leslie's pool tomorrow or order it on amazon prime: Amazon.com Thank you!

First results are in: Chlorine 0 Yellow Side pH 7.8 Red Side FC: 0ppm solution was clear there was no need to add the R0871 to clear the solution CC 0.5ppm TC 0.5ppm CH 225ppm TA: 140 CYA: The solution was clear I never got to the point where I could not see the dot If I understand correctly, I...

Thank you. It seems like I should not do anything until the pool is filled to the skimmer opening, and I am running the equipment for 4hours.

Good morning, After 4 years I decided to drain the pool before the Summer start in AZ. This is my first time draining the pool. It has been empty for 3-4 days and I am ready to fill it up. I found some old threads about this topic but some of the recommendations were confusing to me. Any...

Ok so I'll do the following: Day 1: raise FC to 20, add 4 pucks Day 8: add 2gal and 4pucks Day 15: add 2gal and 4pucks Day 22: measure FC and adjust with liquid chlorine I will give my friend the FC tester to measure once a week. I'll update this thread when I have some update from my friend...

I have not checked daily my FC, that is my fault. And I just measured and you are 100% the FC is too high, it's at 21. So would the following potentially work: Day 1: raise FC to 20, add 4 pucks Day 8: add 4gal and 4pucks Day 15: add 4gal and 4pucks Day 22: measure FC and adjust with liquid...

10% from home depot or lowes. And they are stored inside to avoid the sun and are less than 3months old. I am also trying to get my TA lower I am at 180 and pH is high as well. Sorry two issues simultaneously

So I started with TA of 400 and PH of 8.2 Then I lowered it to TA200 and PH 7.5 And now it's at TA180 and PH 8.2 Seems like the PH keeps going up?! Thoughts
