    FC level for a SWCG pool

    Thanks pooldv for the prompt response! I also read here that the Calcium Hardness can be 350- 450. Would you recommend I bring my Calcium Hardness level as it is now at 320 per my test today morning. Also to note, per the Hayward pro logic manual, the ideal level is 200 - 400 ppm. Thanks!
