PLEASE..someone tell me something I might understand that is good.
Actually I have been getting some wonderful help from people here and I soooooo appreciate it. New issue. Need some insight.
Okay, tested 25th (wed)with tf-100:
fc 2.5
cc 0
ph 7.65
ta 60
ch 150
cya 0
okay added ch and cya on 25th and 26th.
Tested this past monday:
fc 7
cc 0
ph 7.6
t/a 90
ch 210
cya 0
Added some more CYA (about 1.5 pds. Total of 4.5 lbs since last week) and liittle bit of CH on Tuesday morning.
Tested yesterday w/ Taylor
ch - darker then 5 so "assume" 6-7
ph - 7.8
**added about 2 c of MA
Had to go to pool store this am so went ahead and took pool sample (going there anyway, hey let them do it). First thing he asked me was if I added ALOT of water lately. Other then then rain we have had lately - no. They report:
fc 0
cc 0
ph 7.8
ch 150
ta 80
cya 15
Okay... is it possible to have ZERO FC ???? ANd for my CH to drop from 210 to 150 in less then 48 hrs? They are telling me that I need to add 15 oz MA, 12 lbs of CH, and 2 lbs CYA and they want me to add chlorine. When I questioned the chlorine and explained I had just tested and it was high, they stated sometimes this happens with tablets. I had no clue what that meant but I have never used a tablet of anykind in my pool and explained this. He looked at me like I was crazy.
Okay, those who helped me in the past know what a pool dummy I am. So what do I make of all this? Where do I even start? Anyone willing to take me by the hand?????
