Thanks to this forum and my test kit, my pool is easy to handle. A friend of mine painted the inside of his concrete pool last year, and he just noticed the paint is starting to disintegrate when he brushed the sides. I asked him how he tests his pool, and he has been using trichlor and just letting it go. I told him his pH and TA were probably low, and he reluctantly let me test it.
My test results are
FC 2
pH lower than 6.8, couldn't get a read past there. it was the color of pee
CH 200
TA 30
CYA 60
(22500 gal pool concrete pool, painted, DE filter, trichlor feeder, no water feature)
Not sure where to start with this. Stop using trichlor of course, but what to balance first? Besides raise chlorine level.
