10,600 gal. ag 15X30, 1.5hp 2 speed pump, 22" sand filter
Hi and thanks for taking the time. My ag is being installed now as I type. Just wanted to make sure my plans are good for after it's filled. I'll be using BBB method. Here are my tap water numbers:
ph 8
fc .5
tc 3
ta 125
cya 0
(didn't think CH was important right now in vinyl pool - let me know if it is)
some questions:
1.Should I raise chlorine to shock level at first, or after I get the ph down (mur. acid)?
2.Should I immediately (and carefully) add cya, or wait to get chlorine and ph correct?
3.Lastly, do I run the pump on high 24/7 while getting numbers right?
Pool calculator says: add 209oz of 6%bleach (shock level w/no cya), add 18oz mur. acid, add 99oz cya
sound good?
I apologize if these have been answered already - I've read quite a bit here on TFP and couldn't find my exact situation - thanks so much for your help!
