I'm uncertain about the order of which to add several chemicals that are needed. Other than the usually daily check and likely need for Bleach and possibly Muriatic Acid, the pool needs more Stabilizer, Calcium Hardness Increaser, Phospate Reducer, and also salt. We have a SWG that has been out of commission and we have been using bleach in the mean time. Now the system has been repaired and we need to add salt. It is a fresh fill from about a month ago so the salt level is super low. I'm good with how much chemical to put in, and have been using the recommendations from this site, but here are the numbers so y'all know what I'm dealing with:
FC - 2
Salt - 200
CH - 70
CYA - 40
TA - 70
PH - 7.8
Phosphates - 2,500
I realize that it is noted on this site that Phosphates don't typically matter as long as you keep your FC up, however, my numbers are so very high that I want to bring them down some. My pool is currently very clear and without issue, so I'd like to keep it that way.
Any guidance on the order of all of this would be appreciated.
