I know this has probably been asked a million times, but just a little nervous as this the first 'opening' I've had since we got the pool last summer.
I don't have all the numbers yet, but the main thing is I need to triple check on it the CC.
CYA is about 35
used walmart kit for PH test, used a little muriatic acid to drop the PH to what looks like 7.4 on the chart.
I didn't use pool calc yet as I knew I'd need a lot of bleach to start with since it was a little green (cover slipped in pool over the winter but kept it from becoming a total swamp).
Right now, used fas/dpd test, FC=12 and CC=0
water is not sparkling clear but not what you'd call cloudy either, no green left of course.
So do I need to go up more and keep it shock level? or is ok to let FC fall back down? I'll be adding more CYA once shock is done so my target will change as I adjust CYA.
