Hello Everyone,
Five days ago I added about 35 lbs of Boraxo and 2.1 gallons of acid to my pool. I ran the pump for 48 hrs. My readings are as follows:
ph 7.8
fc 3
ta 100
ch 330
cya 30
borate 30 - 40 difficult for me to see the colors
I have been adding a quart of acid a day to keep my ph in check. This seems like a lot. I also add about 3 cups of chlorine. I run my pump from 8 am to 8 pm. I did my borate calculations on 12000 gallons. I am unsure of my kidney shaped pool capacity. Should I raise my cya level a little? And perhaps raise my borates a bit? Hopefully to cut down on acid.
