I tested my CH to 230 and the pool calculator said to add 64 OZ by volume of calcium chloride(Leslie's Hardness Plus). I added that this morning and tested about 3 hours later and it is still 230. I expected some type of jump up, does it just take awhile to show up?
Current test:
FC: 2 (going to raise this with liquid shock (12% bleach)
CC: .5
TC: 2.5
PH: 7.5
TA: 100
CH:230
CYA: 30 (have a sock in the skimmer right now with 25oz of stabalizer in it)
Also: I am using my new TF-100 kit and it is all working well except the TA test- I can't seem to get it right. I am using the TA test from my DPD test kit instead. THe TA test from the TF100 showed TA of 150 and the DPD kit said 100. Yesterday it was 90 (via DPD kit) so I added 34 oz of Baking soda to try to get it to 100- so I would trust the DPD test kit as that is what it showed-100, right on the nose.
