I have a fiberglass pool in the upstate/ Greenville, SC area. I think the pool I about 8500 gallons based on the water bill. I did the tests today using my new kit. This is my first time owning a pool. I put the results into the pool math calculator. I am going to do the tests again tomorrow to double check them, but I am pretty sure they are correct. I am going to remove the floater with the chlorine tablets tonight. I am pretty certain the chlorine is correct. I have had the floater in all winter and dumped a half gallon or so of bleech in for good measure here and there. It hasn’t turned into a green monster. LOL
Here are the results
FC 8
ph 7.2
TA 540
CH 350
CYA 70
Borate 15
Water temp 55
What do I need to be doing between now and when the weather warms up. I will be trying to see if the pump and filter work in the next few days. Is there a good place online to learn about those? I want to repeat the tests once the filter has run for at least 24 hours unless you guys think longer.
FYI, I really like the kit and speed stir. Well worth the money and easy to use.
