New plaster pool, bout a week old.
Builder did Acid startup, brushing pool 2x daily. Have an inline chlorinator currently running with 4 chlorine tabs. Will switch over to SWG in a month.
I'm assuming my water levels will want to be inline with a "chlorine" pool until I switch over to SWG and adjust accordingly.
Got the ol TF100 kit and did my initial test.
FC: Didn't turn pink so I'm guessing not much chlorine is in there. For sanity check the daily chlorine check showed nothing either. I adjusted the in-line chlorinator to a higher level since my CYA is non-existent as well.
PH: Nothing much there either. Below the 6.8 level on the sight glass
TA: Showed nothing
CYA: Showed nothing. Didn't get cloudy at all. Figure this is common with new pools.
CH: 325...
actually got a measurement!
I'm guessing since it's a new pool the numbers will be skewed for the first week or so.
Wondering if I need to add some more chlorine immediately besides the tabs in the chlorinator or just wait a few more days and check again.
