Hi all,
I've been lurking here for a couple of years. We finally got a pool last year.
Pool: 21 foot diameter above ground, 52 inch, appx. 4 foot deep. (appx 11,500 gal.).
1.5 HP Blue torrent pump
PRC 90 filter (also Blue torrent)
I got a chemical kit from TFT. Here are my numbers:
FC = 20 ppm
CC = 0 ppm
TC = 20 ppm
CH = 200 ppm
TA = 120
CYA = 65
The regular Cl test shows above 5
pH = 6.8
Temp = 85 F
Water is green.
I have two filters that I have been switching between so I can wash one and have the other one running.
Pressure in the filter is 10 psi and doesn't seem to rise above that even when the filter is full of algae.
Thanks for any help you can give me.
-David
