Pool just opened today; readings are
(Water mostly clear, not green, but a lot of dirt/debris with what looks like a small amount of algae on one seat. Pool was closed in Oct.)
water temp 56F
FC 1.5
CC 5.5
TA 70
Ca++ 150
CYA 0 (I let water sample for CYA test warm up on top of a running clothes dryer so it was warmer)
Salt 2400
pH ~7.3-ish
Questions:
1) I clearly need to slam; what is the minimum CYA for a slam?
(I will need to get the CYA up to ~70 eventually for SWG, but assume I can get by with much less while slamming, then raise CYA after, since higher CYA=more chlorine for slam?)
2) in what order should I slam and adjust the other chemistries?
Thanks!
