Greetings all. So Idecided that I wanted to start taking care of my 10,000 gallon pool, and after acouple of weeks of reading (and some experimenting), I think I am starting tounderstand some of the basics. Thatsaid, my pool has relatively high CYA levels (90) - probably reflective of tabletuse and the fact it hasn’t been drained in at least the last 3 years - andafter doing some reading around the forum it looks like I need to keep mytarget FC around 10 and my shock FC around 35.
So, last week I purchased Total Poolcare DPD Test Kit (Mfg.by Taylor) at Leslie’s, and realized after getting it home that the CL/BR scaleonly goes to 5/10. That said, I also havea bottle of Clorox Smart Strips that measure FC up to 10 PPM, but I’d like tobe able to get a better sense of where I’m at daily than the test stripsprovide; also the strips won’t help me to figure out where I am relative toshock values. So, I was wondering ifanyone might have some ideas on testing above 10 PPM.
FC 10
PH 7.5
TA 100
CH 400
CYA 90
Thanks in advance!
