I ordered the TF100 kit yesterday and can't wait for it to arrive. I'm completely new to this pool maintenance thing. This site has been really helpful. I have an Intex 15' x 48" circular pool with the Intex SWG. I've been running the filter every day and the SWG has been on for 3hrs each day. Until I found this forum I hadn't realised I needed to add other things to the pool and run multiple tests.
Once the test kit arrives and I (assume I'll) find I need to add things (I think I'll try the BBB method), can I add them all in one day, or do I need to stagger it--and if so, in what order? I'm assuming I'll need to add some quantity of Borax, Baking Soda, Cyanuric Acid, and Muriatic Acid to balance everything. The pool has been up for a week with just the filter and SWG running
(I added the recommended 110lbs of salt to get it started), so I'm hoping to get it ready for use as soon as I can.
Any advice would be great! I'd like to get this right first time if I can.
