Hello all ... long time reader, first time poster here ... we have an inground pool vinyl 60,000 litres (16,000 gal) with a SWG. Being filled as we speak and should be a go tomorrow ... numbers from the tap are:
FC .5
CC 0
TC .5
Ph 7.2
TA 110
CYA 0
Salt 0
Did not test for CH as I figure it is vinyl liner and CH is not a priority.
So ... I am thinking of doing the following:
1. 400 lbs of salt for a 3000ppm count
2. Stabilizier - 12 lbs to get CYA to about 50 ppm (currently none in the water) then afterwards bring to about 70 over the next few weeks
3. 165 grams of Tricholor - to get cholorine to 3 ppm while waiting for salt to disolve
4. PH for water is 7.2 and CA is 110 - aeration should bring the ph up slowly target PH 7.5 and 70 TA, so will cycle with acid to get to target TA.
Am I on track?
