Hello,
I finally re-did the test using the new kit (K-2006) that I purchased, and the results are as follows:
Free & Combined Chlorine
Color didn't turn pink even after adding 10 scoops of DPD Powder, so I stopped assuming both are 0.
pH: 7.8
TA: 200 ppm
CH: 500 ppm
CYA: 48 ppm
I plan to lower the TA using muriatic acid first tonight, then adjust pH after that. Please, let me know if I should shock the pool tonight first as FC is 0 prior to adjusting TA then pH.
Thanks.
