My new pool can't seem to maintain FC above 0.5. Current readings are:
FC 0.3
PH 7.8
TA 80
CYA 70
Salt 3200
Phosphates 100
Pool info: 15'x40' 16k gal, IG, Black Plaster, Water Fall, All Pentiar equipment, DE FNSP48, Intelliflo VS, SWG IC20, Kreepy Krauly Legend, SGM Spray Deck, Built - 6/2014
I've been to the pool store and had them confirm my readings and they gave me some "clor-brite" to bring the FC up to about a 10 then over the course of a three days it dropped down back to a 1 then back to 0.3 after 3 more days. The pump and SWG are running 18-24 hours a day and the SWG is set to 100%. I contacted the PB and he sent the warranty tech out from Pentiar and they did the "bucket test" on the SWG and it tested okay. The tech said he would have done a larger unit.
Some other info:
Pool temp is currently 90+ deg F. The pool is in full sun most of the day. I haven't had any algae yet but the pool has felt slimy at times. Slimy goes away if i add clor-brite.
Both the PB and the tech that installed the SWG said I really should be running it about 10 hours a day and it should keep up with out an issue.
Any help here would be greatly appreciated.
