Hello all,
Brand new to the Forum! I have a 12000 gal in-ground vinyl lined liq bleach chlorinated pool. I switched to liq bleach from inline tri-chlor tabs about 2 months ago after reading through the Pool School. At first the switch was great. Within the past 2 weeks though, my CC keeps climbing higher and higher. Should I put some tabs back in the inline generator to raise my CYA a bit, then do a slam tomorrow? According to the Calculator if I am using it right, my slam target should be around 12, is that correct? I have a feeling I am doing the slams incorrectly. With the CC as high as it is right now, is it safe for us to swim? "that one buddy" say's it's fine due to the TC being safe, but my own personal interpretation of information on this site and elsewhere say's CC of 6 is not safe. Any help or advice to LOWER my CC would be greatly appreciated! Test results below.
As of today, my test results are:
PH: 7.4
Alk: 80
CYA: 20-30 (Taylor's can still barely see at 30, test strip says 20)
FC: 1.6
CC: 6
Water Temp: 75 deg F
Air Temp: 90 deg F
Location: Eastern Virginia
