How can I lower CH without draining the pool? We just drained and refilled the pool and starting CH was 475. We have extremely hard water.
Here are my levels:
FC 8.5
TC 9
CC 0.5
pH 7.5
TA 275
CH 475
CYA 0
I am adding acid to lower pH and TA and aerating to increase pH. I used what stabilizer/conditioner I had, but need to go get some more. I know we need to get a better pump, we are using the one that came with the pool and pretty much will be running it 24/7. I am a teacher in Oklahoma and will have to wait until next pool season to get the better pump. Wanting to switch to a swg system. We will have to do some modifying since the pool we have only has 1 return and the skimmer/pump combo. I want to add a return that we will be able to hook us a hose to help with cleaning the pool.
