Hi there. I've spent the last couple weeks trying to get all my test level right, and thanks to all of you at troublefreepool, I finally I have. So thank you. As of today my Ph-7.2 TA-100, Total Chlorine-5, and CYA is a little high at 60, but I was told by another member that that was ok. I didn't test Calcium Hardness because it's a vinyl pool. Me and my 2 children get in the pool everyday for 3-4 hours (starting as of a week ago) so I'm wondering should I shock right now, and how often do I shock. The last time we shocked was 3-4 weeks ago, but as I said we just start swimming in it 1- 1 1/2 week ago. I guess I'm being lazy by not spending the hour or two to read through the website to find the anwser, but I thought this would be much quicker.
My other queston is how often do I do all the tests in the TF-100 (I think that's what it's called. Don't have kit around at the moment) . But I know you need to test chlorine daily, but what about the other test? Just don't want to waist the test kit chemicals if I don't have to. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much!
