Hey guys!
Just a quick update on us.. we have been TROUBLE FREE since I found you & started testing my own water (still every other day) with my fancy kit. LOVE IT!! Thank you!!
Question though... we currently have our SWG set "under 40%" (says the husband), and the equipment shuts down at 1am & comes back on at 5am (4 hour down time). Yesterday the FC was 5.5 and today it's 6.5. This is the one thing we have NOT been able to master - chlorine level!
My question is... would it be better to increase the equipment downtime (off at 1am, on at 10am?) or should we decrease the percentage of the SWG?
Or rather... is there any big difference? We would also like to lower the electric bill a tad , so I'm hoping for a combination of both, perhaps.
TEST RESULTS:
FC: 6.5 (up from 5.5 yesterday)
pH: 7.6/7.7 (higher than 7.5, lower than 7.8)
TA: 80 or 90 (turned pink at 80, darkened to red at 90)
CYA: 90
Water Temp: 86*
Faithfully yours......
Cathy
