New to all this and have a question regarding my FC level. I’ve been running our SWG at 20% with a pump run time of 6 hrs keeps my FC around 5. CYA is 70. The grandkids came over along with us using the pool and my FC dropped down to 4. Is it ok to add some chlorine bring my FC back up to my baseline of 5 rather than raise the SWG output % for a day or so? Looks like the weather will be cooling off so probably won’t be using the pool much for the next several days.
Also going forward once the weather does warm up and we are using the pool more I assume I’ll have raise the output of the SWG to keep up with the warmer temps and increased bather load
thanks
 
You can add liquid chlorine to your pool to raise FC.
You will need to increase the production of FC by the SWCG as you progress into summer.
