Hello all,
I have just refilled my hot tub with ~300 gallons of fresh water. I am using the TF 100 Kit and got the following measurements:
CH 70 ppm
pH 7.5 ppm
TA 70 ppm
After making these measurements, I added Alkanlinity increaser and calcium hardness increaser to raise TA by 10ppm and CH by 70ppm. I have not remeasured the pieces above after making the adjustments.
I then measured:
FC 0.5ppm
CC 0.5ppm
CYA 0
I wanted to make sure that getting a CYA of 0 was reasonable.
In following http://www.troublefreepool.com/how-do-i-use-chlorine-in-my-spa-or-pool-t10095.html, I want to get my Chlorine levels to ~35ppm and raise my CYA to ~30ppm.
I am using the following product:
http://www.spa-essentials.com/mp/v/...110VgnVCM10000053d7010aRCRD&vgnextfmt=default
I am assuming it will raise chlorine and CYA levels since it appears to be 99% dichloro. I have put in roughly 1.5 tablespoons and according to the directions, this should raise the chlorine levels by ~20ppm.
Do I seem to be on the right track or am I missing things terribly? Thanks.
