    Texas splash, thanks for the quick reply. Is there a way to get my FC up quickly. The SWG has a super chlorinate mode, it will do 100% for 24 hours, should I do that? My pool builder also said don't add calcium for 30 days, due to new plaster, anybody heard of that? This mornings test results...
