Hi all,
I opened my pool this year with no issues, balanced things fine, and everything was balanced fine. I was using my reagents I bought last ~August to test things and all levels are in range of what I expected. There was a sale on refill kit a couple weeks ago so I bought a new set of reagents to get some fresh chemicals.
When I tested my levels today, my CH went from 375 with the old chemicals to supposedly 725 with the new chemicals. I'm having 0 issues with the pool, and all other tests came back with the same results as before, accounting slight differences due to chlorine/ph shifts. So the question is, could something actually be wrong? Could the reagents be bad? There is no cloudiness in the pool, no scaling, no issues whatsoever, so I find it hard to believe the CH is actually that high, but I ran the test twice and got the same results both times.
Thoughts?
