Hey All,
I've learned a ton from this community and the TFP ABC's. Thanks for being a great resource. The issue I'm currently experiencing is a real head scratcher.....wanted to see if anyone had any ideas. 7 days ago on 8/16 my pool was in perfect balance. I've got a 5 month old ~15,000 gallon vinyl intex pool with SWG.
Yesterday I check FC (it's usually 2-3.0). It's at 10. TA is at 60 and Ph is 7.4. I turn off the SWG and decide to retest today. Today, Here's the full test with CH and CYA included.
FC - 12.5
Ph-7.4
TA - 60
CH - 190
CYA - 70
Salt - 4600
Using my Taylor test kit I was not able to get a reading on CC as the test did not show the intended indicator color.
I test FC, PH and TA weekly and about every 4 weeks test CH and CYA. They've been solid. Salt I've never tested so I can't reference what it's been in the past, but the pool has been very stable this summer with only minor adjustments needed.
Throughout this past week in the Sacramento area we've had a heat wave with 4 107-108 degree days combined with fine ash from fires in the area. Does anyone have any ideas on what is happening and what to do?
Thanks
