Hi all,
My daughter had a serious facial surgery this summer and hasn't been able to swim all summer. She is finally all healed and got the ok to swim yesterday, but now our chlorine level is too high. Argh. She was so looking forward to swimming so I feel terrible! I'm new to pool maintenance so I'd love your input on how to quickly fix this and get my daughter swimming as soon as possible! Many thanks in advance
Here are our stats:
In ground pool, 20,000 gallons, DE filter system, using "Taylor Complete FAS-DPD chlorine" test kit system to test
Current numbers:
FC = 7.5 (down from 8 yesterday after running filter all night, getting rid of some water and adding fresh -- maybe a few inches worth)
CC = .5
PH = 7.2 (up from 7.0 yesterday after adding soda ash)
TA = 40
CH = 120
CYA = Out of CYA regent so could not take this number, will go to store to get more
