I will try adjusting my return angle and lowering TA. Is it ok to use pH down to lower TA? I'm not a fan of the muriatic acid. Actually I'm afraid to use it. I purchased pH down instead.

My water has evaporated to the return output and I noticed that my pH levels have elevated from 7.6 to 8.0. I tested my TA and its maintaining 90. With the water being lower than usual, I think the return is aerating the water causing my pH to be higher. I have well water and used the bucket...

Thank you!

I have liquid stabilizer.

Great, thank you. Is it ok to add CYA and chlorine at the same time or wait 30 minutes in between?

I added CYA on for the first time on Tuesday afternoon. My level read 30. I tested other chemicals this morning and I have the following: FC 3.5 CC 0 Ph 7.4 TA 90 According to poolmath I should keep my FC up to 4. Should I increase my CYA? How often do I add Liquid Chlorine? Its going to be a...

Thanks, I was amazed with the outcome.🙂

Yes, here they are. Thanks, I was amazed with the outcome. No additional chemicals used to get iron out of the water. We used the bucket filter for 2 days and removed it today. To be on the safe side, we are using the sock method tonight to catch any left over iron that could be lingering.

Thanks, this is all new to me.

Thanks so much! I will continue to monitor the pH and FC.

I passed the OCLT and used the bucket filter to get rid of iron. My water is crystal clear. My testing numbers tonight are as follows: FC 3 CC 0 PH 7.4 TA 90 I started with CYA 30 Poolmath is suggesting lowering TA with baking soda and adding 7.8 oz of liquid chlorine to bring FC up to 4. What...

Good news! I passed the OCLT .5 ppm FC loss and 0.5 CC. Hopefully, no algae. I started the bucket filter yesterday and the results are amazing. Pictures attached. It must have been the iron in the well water. What are my next steps for testing after shock? I'm going to test FC which should have...

I added chlorine up to 10ppm las

Ok, thank you.

Ok will do. Yes, my well water does have a little iron in it. I wasn't sure whether it was iron or algae. The chlorine didn't turn it brown. It has light green tint. I can see clearly to the bottom of the pool. Its not cloudy just green.

It took me 5 days to fill using well water. We had some rain in between. My Ph and TA was very low so I added baking soda, cya, and liquid chlorine last night. When I rinsed filter cartridge it looked kind of slimy I'm worried it could be algae. My numbers today are as follows: FC - 4 CC - .5...

Ok thanks

Should I add chlorine and CYA now or wait until Ph and TA are within the appropriate range?

Thanks so much this helped a lot. I filled from the well for the last 5 days. There has been a little rain during those days.

I just finished filling pool and tested PH and TA. PH is a yellow color and TA is either a 20 or 30 it turned pink at 20. What are my next steps. I haven't added anything to the water yet only have filter pump flowing. Pictures are below.

Great, thanks so much!

Do you enter the full water capacity or 90% capacity? The description of my pool listed capacity based upon 90%.
