In anticipation of actually being able to fill my new pool I tested (with my TF 100) my tap water today to see where I will be starting from. Here are the results.
Chlorine .05-1
PH 8.2+ (quite a bit brighter pink than the scale)
Calcium Hardness 0 (was blue before adding third reagent)
Tatal Alkalinity 200
So Where does this put me? I imagine the calcium hardness and PH will change a bit once the water is in the pool and reacting with the plaster etc.
