It has been a while since my last post, I built my inground lined pool back in 08 (18 x 36 w/sand filter) and since then it has been maintained by a pool company. Now I am finally home and ready to go! I got the TF 100 kit and will like to share the results with everyone and get some advice on were to go from here.
FC 9.1
CC .5
T/A 90
CYA 90
According to the calculation table I am high on the FC, CC and CYA. But when I look at other charts and find my readings they are not bad as long as they all fall within the same bracket, but I am not sure about this.
I got a small training session from my pool lady the last day of her service which was about 12 days ago. I cleaned the pool this past weekend but have not added any chemicals.
Her advice was to add about 1 to 2 gallons of bleach and 1 to 2 tablets once a week and backwash once a month. They did a good job but I know I can do better and make that water crystal clear, that's what I told my wife :-D I am decent with the hand vacuum she also showed me how to get the air out of the hose and the setup of the valves.
Thanks to everyone for the help!
