FC 3-9 ppm?

[Megarms]

Owned a pool at my prior home and used the Pool Math app to manage my levels. As I recall, the recommended FC level was 1 - 3 ppm. Fast forward a couple of years, we moved and built another pool. I loaded up the app again, but this time it is calling for 3 - 9 ppm for FC.

Am I mistaken or did the recommended FC level change?

The recommended FC levels are dependent upon the CYA level of the water. More CYA requires more FC to maintain sanitation in the water.

Thank you for the link. Does the Pool Math app automatically adjust the recommended FC level based on what I enter for CYA?

Does the Pool Math app automatically adjust the recommended FC level based on what I enter for CYA?

Yes. When you update the APP with all of your pool details and current test results, the APP will provide recommendations. Some owners also like to refer to the TFP Recommended Levels page just to see everything there as well. If you ever have doubt about what is recommended, you can always post your results here or we can look at your Poolmath logs.
