So Tested the water at home with my little kit (Pool master 5 way test kit) and my 3 different bottles of test strips. And all looked good to me. CC has been holding the whole time my pump was out. Neighbor rolled his eyes at me and said he used to service pools, "let me know if you need help with that" as he was of no help with the pump. He said, "What did you used LIQUID bleach (guess he has watched out the window.) So he made me doubt myself, and I took a sample to Leslies, here is what they got.
FC-6
CC-6 (0.2 Diff)
Salt-3100 (For the Solaxx SWG, and eventually the CircuPool)
CH-80
CYA-60
TA-100
PH-7.4
Copper-0
Iron-0
Phosphates-100
From my little kit this morning,
I got:
FC-3
CC-Over 5 (5 is as high as it goes)
PH-7.8
Acid Demand is telling me to add 3 pints MA
I don't use MA guys (afraid of it)
Conversion of dry is 60 ounces
It said that yesterday on the PH but I didn't believe the amount and added 12 ounces dry
That was an hour before I took the sample to Leslies
Any opinions out there (besides getting the TF-100)?
I noticed a lot of what I call silt in the bottom and settled on the steps, accumulating while the pump was out. My little robot can't keep up with that. Wouldn't vacuuming up all that and back washing help?
