Hey y’all, we have a 15,600 gal fiberglass saltwater pool. It’s about a month old. We have a Hayward SWG, it’s been set to 100% output on the Super Chlorinate mode since the builder started it up and it’s showing a reading of 3100. I just did my first test with my Taylor K-2005 kit and am a little lost on what to do next. Our calcium hardness is very low (I even tested it twice to be sure). But we also have some other things out of whack, including CYA, free chlorine and our pH is at the high end.
We have also been getting white flakes and some scaling (most evident on our skimmer and water wall as shown in the pictures). I assume this must be related to calcium? I’ve read not to add calcium to fiberglass pools but we are so low that I don’t quite know what to do. Any advice would be much appreciated. We are in north DFW area. Thank you in advance!
