Curious on what your FC is upon opening and filling the pool? AGP

Opened up the pool yesterday and finished today. It was super easy this year!

After filling it I ran some tests...

FC = 14. I thought that was close enough to perfect. Its high enough to give me a day to get the salt mixed and the SWG turned on. I won't be adding any shock or chlorine.

What's your FC at after filling?

My other test results...

CC = 0
CYA = 50 (Added 2# of stabilizer and will wait a few days before testing again)
PH = 7
TA = 110
CH = 500 (couple hundred lower than last yr)
Salt = 3000 (I added 3, 40# bags while I was filling and got super lucky I didn't add too much. I'm only adding 2 bags next year, I don't like cutting it that close)

Thank you TFP!
 
I was also suprised that I had a FC of 5 at opening with no chemicals added. I tested a couple times with both the Taylor and TF-100 because the other two times I had opened it was zero.

Would that much have lived through winter? Or does it maybe indicate a lot of chlorine in our towns water supply.

Edit :Just tested our tap water at 1ppm. So I guess it just lived through the winter.
