My SWG pool chemistry is quite stable and the water is sparkling. I wondering though about my target chemistry levels. My SWG is set to produce a little under 2ppm/day of FC and typical of SWG pools there is constant upward pressure on the pH level, which I've been running about 7.7-7.9.
If I use the TFP recommendations for pool chemistry, summarized below I get a CSI range of -0.62 to -0.16.
TFP Recommendations
FC ~9
CC 0
pH 7.2 to 7.8
TA 70 (TFP range 60 to 80 ppm)
CH 400 (TFP range 350 to 450 ppm)
CYA 80 (TPF range 70-80)
Borate 40 ppm (waiting for Blue/Mannitol parts to confirm)
Salt 3750
Temp 84F
CSI Range based on the above: -0.62 to -0.16
What I've been running though is the following:
FC ~10
CC 0
pH 7.7 to 7.9
TA ~90
CH 400
CYA 80
Borate ~40-50
Salt 3750
Temp 84F
CSI Range: -0.04 to +0.12
Does the TFP recommend targeting a ZERO CSI, or would I be better with the lower pH but an offset CSI average of about -0.3?
Thoughts and comments are appreciated.
