Ok, I wontNo new sand for it yet!!! It is still hungry!!
Will do.. I'll do the OCLT test tonight.Not a major worry just yet, but let’s make a mental note to address pH quick once the conversion is done. It’s too low. Is this from your TF-100???
Tonight after dark let’s do an OCLT to see where you’re at. I suspect you’re close, but maybe not right there. After dark add enough FC to hit 15 and let the pump run. After a few minutes retest and jot that number down. Retest in the morning again to see your loss. Hopefully you will keep most the chlorine in the water overnight.
Looking at the Conversion article you can say you’re at the “middle part” of the conversion where adding chlorine during the middle of the day isn’t really helpful. It will speed up things slightly, but it does mean much of the FC is consumed by the sun. You may find that only testing/dosing in the early morning and evening will work just fine.
Looks good, let’s get this last little bit and hit an Overnight Chlorine Loss Test tonight! Great Job!!
I've brushed a few times. I'll do it again tonightPS......how often are you brushing? Really give the pool a good scrub including around lights, returns, ladders, skimmers, and anywhere else Baqua can hide out at.
Yes, this was from my TF-100Is this from your TF-100???
Sounds good. It'll be the weekend before I can change the sand. Can I start on bringing the CYA up before I change the sand or should I wait?Congrats! You’re so close now.
For starters, don’t stress about chlorine during the day. It will be consumed by the sun. Just add in the evening up to 15ppm. Go ahead now and change the sand and add enough CYA to hit at minimum 30ppm. Keep dosing for a few days to 15ppm and I highly suspect your CC level will start to drop drastically.
Well done!

You need a K1766 salinity test kit. See TFTestkits.net for one.What's the best way to test the salt level in my pool?
I stopped and picked up my salt today and my CYA and have started bringing those levels up. Can I start bringing my pH level up now at the same time as I'm add CYA? Should I still maintain 15ppm Chlorine also?
