Out of curiosity yesterday I took a sample to the pool store to get tested. I wanted to compare my test results to theirs just for funzies. Below are both results, see what you guys would advise. I have a plan in mind after all the reading on the forum about phosphates and CH but I value your opinion. BTW, I have used the TFP method since putting my pool in 4 years ago and have always had good clear water with one instance of pre algae bloom that bout drove me crazy but I got it under control.
My test:
FC - 5
CC -.5
Salt - 3600
CH - 50
CYA - 50
TA - 50
pH - 7.5
Their Test: Their Range
5 -------------- 1-4 ppm
0 -------------- .2 difference
3200 ---------- 2500-3500 ppm
110 ----------- 200-400 ppm
40 ------------ 60-99 ppm
120 ----------- 80-120 ppm
7.6 ----------- 7.2-7.8
Thanks for all the help!
