We finally moved into our new house and I've had the opportunity to take some measurements of the pool water chemistry with my TF-100.
There are some things that need adjusting, and I'm going to need some help figuring out how to do this.
I'll give you as much information as possible, to make it easier for you to understand the circumstances.
Pool - indoor, fiberglass
Water temp - 86 degrees
Room temp - 89 degrees
SWG has a salt reading of 2.9

Yesterday we had 8 people in the pool, so I can understand why my chlorine readings have gone down.
They were high before that because the guys working on the electrical for the pool reset my power, and the SWG ran at 100% for about 36 hours before I rechecked things and discovered the reading was high.
Today I added 2 cups of dry acid (if that's what it's called...), to help bring the PH down. I followed the instructions in the TF-100 blue daily test kit, to figure out how much to add to bring 10,000 gal down to normal readings.
I'm pretty sure all my readings are off and need to be adjusted, but I don't know how to go about doing this.
Any help you can offer would be appreciated.
