My results after draining of water - thoughts?

[sws1]

I drained a little more than 1/2 my pool, and refilled with tap water. I intend to go with liquid chlorine now, instead of Trichlor / Cal-hypo the pool guys were using.

Just tested results:
25000 gallon inground, vinyl-lined pool
82 degrees (water)
Direct sun from 8am to 4pm daily.

CYa: 50
TA: 90
pH: 7.2 (LOW)
FC: 6.5
CC: 0
TC: 6.5
CH: 240

All good except pH. I added roughly 32oz by vol of soda ash. (I say roughly because I didn't have an exact measuring tool).

Thoughts?

Looks swimmable.

I wouldn't have added soda ash - TA is high enough that some aeration would fix pH.

Bookmark Pool Calculator. Set it up using your specs. Be sure to indicate recommended levels from TFP. It will guide you.

Do you think I'll now end up with too HIGH of a pH?

Probably not but if you do it will be easy to fix. Aeration would just be a means to raise the pH without adding chemicals.
