We opened our pool by ourselves for the first time this year (instead of the pool store doing it ) And last year, after a new liner and refill, I started using bleach to chlorinate (was using a frog, CYA was out of control).
Long story short, I wanted to give you a run down and get your opinion on our levels so here's the stats...
Ohio, 27' round AGP, sand filter, bleach for chlorine, Testing with Taylor K2006.
Latest test results
FC 3
PH 7.4
TA 130
CYA 30ish.
Crystal clear water after an initial clear up. Is CYA ok? It might be slightly below that. I did the test inside the house because it was getting late. I'll do another tomorrow outside like I'm supposed to.
And I do have one question. We have well water and it reacts horribly with chlorine and turns an ugly brown/green for a few days every time we have to add some water. Is there anything we can do to help that? Hopefully we won't have to add too much more water.
