I've been an on-again / off-again BBB user believer....summer before last I was on the road and had the "pool guy" back to take care of things. Long story short - when he took the cover off my liner had some really bad wrinkles - - some on the sides and a couple on the bottom. Good bye pool guy. This summer I was back to hauling out my Taylor test kit and transporting Clorox from COSTCO. The last few weeks however I have been on the road and the spousal unit is only going to handle so much of the home front when I'm gone.
This past weekend I thought I would try and prepare for closing - - I slammed it Saturday and today here are my readings (courtesy of the pool store since I was headed to the airport at 4:30 a.m.) They seem pretty close to what I tested on Sunday afternoon.
FC - 7.8
Alkalinity - 100
Ph - 7.6
CYA - 5
Hardness - 141 - - I don't test for this but spousal unit said the pool people wanted to add something for this...??
I couldn't read the CYA on my test kit (clear in this past test but was previously 30)....
What do you recommend ? I'm home again tonight - - late - - and have to leave again on Thursday and would really like to get this thing buttoned up (or looped up with the cover) on Wednesday since it may be 3 or more weeks before I'm home again.
