Hi guys,
So I finally have done all the dirty work leveled and put up my pool, patched the darn wall liner that had a pin size needle hole, ran my pump for 24 hours with the recommended salt. Now it's time to fire up the Saltwater System. I know in reading the manual and a bit around here that I'll need some CYA to get going, according to my manual I'll need 1lb = 100lbs of salt. The size of our pool is 15x48 and that's how much salt was required.
So my question is is there a certain type of CYA I need (this isn't just regular bleach right)? I haven't hit up the store yet but looking online there is basic Chlorine Stabilizer and then there is Saltwater Stabilizer so which one would I need? Is there anything else I should dump in as I first start up the Saltwater system?
I have basic 3-way test strips and also copper test strips that came with my SWG that I'm hoping can get me by this last month and a half of summer. I have been spending left and right but do want a better kit next year. We were really undecided on getting a pool or not and kind of just got one at the last minute.
If there is any tips or advice on anything I need to get at the store that you guys can give me I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks so much!!
