I hope I get faster with the testing. This has taken me about an hour to get the numbers. I read through the entire instruction book that came with the kit and carried out all the tests although I think I might repeat them tomorrow before making any changes. The only one I couldn't do was the salt test as the kit doesn't come with the 9198 sample tube.
My Ph test turned out darker than the 8.0 limit so I assumed a value of 8.5
FC 2ppm
CC 0
Ph 8.5
TA 180ppm
CH 350
CYA 9.5
To fix the PH, the Taylor treatment table said add 2.86 qt of Muratic Acid. The TFP pool math appears to be a little more conservative at 36 oz. I think I will go to the pool store and start with the lower amount. They might also have bleach there that I can increase the FC.
I have a Jandy SWG so I increased the salt output from 40% to 60% (it runs between 9am and 5pm) I'm not sure of the pump speed but I think it's at 2750RPM 24/7 10,000gal pool under Sun here in SW Florida. Water looks clear.
