Performed testing on my water last night with both the ColorQ and TF-100 kit.
Test - ColorQ - TF-100
fCL - 3.78 - 3.75
CC - 0 - 0.5
pH - 7.7 - in range
ALY - 68 - 70
CH - 173 - ???
CYA - 44 - 55
SALT - - 3000
Interestingly, I did the CH test twice with the TF-100 test kit and the water never changed color, so that would mean I have no CH in my pool??? Must be the reagants. Most of the other tests came out pretty close. Need to get salt up slightly. My fCL is normally near 8, so the low salt must be affecting that.
Any harm in having low CH? I am working on getting CYA up further.
