Okay here are the pool store numberss. We have just opened the pool and used 1/2 bottle 5oz of clear to shock it.
Vinyl above ground pool 18' x 52" sand filter, approx. 7600 gallons
Water is currently very clear.
TA 100
ph 7.2
Cya 100
Total Hardness 100
Total Chlorine 0.5
Free Chlorine 0.5
Their recommendations, using the Simplicity Clear System:
5 oz more clear to shock again
9lbs of hy cal to bring hardness up
start up the chlorine feeder using the clear tabs
Okay from reading this forum I am thinking that the CYA is too high - how do you lower that? Also that the tabs we use add cya and we already have too much, so how do you combat that?
How about the total hardness which they say should be 200-400 and is currently 100?
They say everything else, except chlorine levels, is within normal range.
Thanks, Waterbug
