Ok here we go. I ran the initial tests twice to make sure I got relatively close numbers.
FC=1.5
CC=4.5
TC=6.0
PH=7.8
T/A=350
CH=220
CYA=25
Temp=89
Pool seems generally clear, but slight greenish tint, especially from under water. Trouble all last year was that I couldn't seem to keep the FC up to a decent level. It seems to have carried over to this year and maybe I see why now. I beg of you to make me a believer so that I shall never return to a pool store for advice.
Tests seemed to go OK, but I do have an ititial question. When performing the FC test, I added 3 drops til it turned clear. Got distracted for a minute and it went back to pink again. Is this normal? I reran the test again strainght thru and same result. Also, I guess it's a judgement call as to whether you can still "see" the black dot on the CYA test, right?
