Last year I had zero issues with water chemistry. This year has been a battle from the get go. In particular my FC and I'm struggling to understand why. It's having big swings. Last year I ran my swg at 30% pretty much the entire year. This year I cant find a setting that will keep it a steady figure. My cya is a 70, my pH is 7.2, cc is 0, ch 370, ta is 110. I had my swg at a 30% recently and my FC went almost to 0. So I increased it to 70% to get it back up and it jumped all the way to a 15 in 2 days. So I bumped it down to a 50% trying to bring it down slowly so I can get a good fix for what swg needs to be at. So at 50% in 2 days in dropped to a 5.4 The only thing different between this year and last year was the pool opening. Now having said that that was about 2 months ago. When my pool company closed the pool last year they stated they put 70 gallons of antifreeze in the lines (which I've been told on here is ridiculous and can't be accurate) and when they opened the pool they pumped the entire amount of antifreeze into the pool. They told me it would evaporate in a couple days. So I was told by a member on here to slam my pool to try to eat up the antifreeze, which I did for 3-4 days. So it's been 2 months and I've slammed the pool so the antifreeze has to be gone, or so I assume. So why is my FC jumping all over the place. It hasn't been used more than normal, it hasn't been overly sunny and my cya has been very consistent between 60-70. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
