Hi all,
I've recently become the owner of an in-ground plaster pool. It's probably 8 years old. After reading things on this site, I bought a K-2006 test kit.
The pool guy is coming by weekly and the pool is in good shape. Today I did all the K-2006 tests and got these results:
FC - 2..4
CC - 0 (or very close to 0)
pH - 7.2
TA - 90
CH - 900 (maybe higher?)
CYA - see below
For the CYA test, when looking at the black dot from above, it disappeared long before the sample even reached the lowest mark (100). I followed the instructions carefully, so I'm as confident as I can be that it was done correctly.
Does this mean the CYA is very high? Is there another way I could test it?
Thanks,
Colin
