I have a TF-100 kit and ran my first test on our fresh pool (new liner, new pump, new filter...see sig). From
reading pool school I know that getting CYA in is most important and getting chlorine in there. I added
4.3lbs of cya according to the pool calculator (18ft x 33ftx 3.75ft (measure depth with tape measure).
I tested at 9pm eastern time and got the following:
FC 11
CC 0
TA 120
PH 7.2
CYA 25
I was surprised CYA was up already of course I didn't know how fast it gets in the water. The only other
thing I added last night was a gallon of 12.5% liquid chlorine. I was surprised the FC is at 11 and ran the test
twice. Anything jumping out at anyone? Otherwise, I'll skip the bleach tonight and retest tomorrow evening.
Thanks.......
