I need a little advice on the order of things to address this issue.
My CH has been a bit high since June (the amount of calcium chloride I added beginning of the season was apparently way too much, my initial reading was 150).
Water has been crystal clear and chlorine numbers were good up until a couple days ago; it's now cloudy, but not too bad...I can still see to the bottom of the pool. No visible algae.
Cleaned out the DE filter grids yesterday. I performed a test today and these are my numbers:
FC 0.5
TA 110
CYA 30
pH 7.5
CH 725
Previous test results from June:
TA 80
CYA 35
pH 7.5
CH 675
Per poolmath, to lower CH I'll need to drop my water volume (gotta test the house water CH to find the exact volume to replace); to drop TA I need reduce pH to 7.0-7.2 and then aerate to increase pH.
Should I address the CH first, then worry about the TA?
Anything else I should be doing?
