I received the TF-100 kit and performed all tests with the following results:
CYA = 110
FC = 65
CC = 0
TC = 65
CH - added 50 drops of 0012 and never turned blue
TA - added 100 drops of R0009 and never turned red
PH = 7.2
So, based on this, what do I need to do and in what order? My CYA is high, so should I address that first? I also have staining on the plaster and suspect some is organic due to high volume of leaves and pine straw that dropped this winter. Also may have some iron although we are on municipal water. We have heavy rust colored staining on the skimmer baskets and we also fight rust ring in the house on the toilet bowls of the two bathrooms that don't get used/flushed often. Would a non drain acid treatment help solve both these issues? My pool is 9 years old and of course the pool company is saying we should consider a re-plaster and they are surprised it lasted this long. SERIOUSLY?!
