Hi Folks,
With my CYA at about 38-40. Using the Pool School Chart my target FC is 5. I had a couple of questions:
1) Is it okay for me to use Pool Calculator and push the FC up to 6 and wait until it drops below 5 and repeat? Or can I let it go lower? Testing shows I have usually 0 - 0.02CC. I'm finding I need to add chlorine 1-2 times a day with this method, is that normal? I am using liquid Chlorine.
2) For amount of Chlorine needed daily, I seem to be using about 750 - 900 mL / day, pool is ~15700gallons, would that be normal? This seems to be true on days the pool isn't even used. The pool does get a decent amount of sun during the day so I know some is lost there as well.
None of this may be any issue, first year with the pool I didn't think I would need that much chlorine. I need to start stocking this stuff =)
Thanks
