Hello All,
I bought a salt water generator (RJ-30+) to replace the chlorine tablets I am currently using for our swimming pool that we had installed last year. I believe I have everything covered for the installation of the generator but I am not clear on what my water chemistry should look like before I make the change. Right now, I have high CYA (~95 PPM) and low PH (6.8-7.0, I'm trying to bring it back up) but the other items I can test for seem to be in line (TA, Calcium Hardness, etc).
Should I have the pool water in a certain state before making the change and adding salt? My issue is I have to use tabs because I am not in a position to add liquid chlorine daily so the CYA issue will just continue to rise and cause other issues. I am thinking of getting the PH in the correct range and then installing the generator / salt. I can then drain & fill to get the CYA down and then add more salt if needed. Is this the correct sequence? Thanks in advance for any feedback.
