I am calling this Blind Shocking
I increased my chlorine level using the pool calculator. Shocked Just as it said.
Once done I realized that I dont have the kit to test Chlorine that high. duuuuhhh
Its been 4 hours of course the chlorine level is high. that was the goal
Cant test my fc tc or cc so its blind
The water looks much better now. It had a slight green brown tint. That is better. Its clear as a bell.
Now though the ph isl above 8.0 high as the kit goes.
I know from reading that the fc will throw off the ph test.
Should I test TA is that a good measure to check if ph is correct?
I have seen several post about adjusting ph after shock. Have looked at the pool school, nothing seems to actually fit correctly so far.
Should I add MA at this time or wait. Prior to adding the chlorine (liquid) the ph was 7.6
I had a cya of 60 to 70 will that cause the liquid chlorine to hold longer?
What do you think?
