Hello to all,
I have a few questions. I completely filled my pool about a week ago and today I took my first water sample to my local pool store. So far, I have added 3lbs of conditioner (24hrs ago) and 1 gallon of 10% chlorine (24hrs ago). The following are the test results:
11,000 gallon pool.
FAC 1
TAC 1
CH 100
CYA 40
TA 70
pH 7.4
Copper 0
Iron 0
TDS 200
Pho 500
My question is, is it normal for CH (100) to be low and Phosphate to be high (500) on this freshly filled pool? or pool store is just trying to sale me chemicals? My Taylor K-2006 test kit should arrived in a couple of days but was a bit curious about the results.
Thank you in advance.
