Hi all - first time pool owner here looking for some guidance after ditching the local pool company and doing my first test today using the Clear Choice Labs salt water kit:
Below are the results:
CYA = 60
FC = 1
PH = 7.6
TA = 75
CH = 175
SALT = 6000
Looks like the salt is high but the chlorine is low, as if the SWG (which I think is an Astralpool E25?) is not working (however it looks like it is, as when I look at the SWG cell plate window thing, I can see cloudy bubbles being generated)?
The other thing is that the test kit comes with a sample of water with salt at 4000, and when I test this, the test kit shows it as 5000. Is the test kit faulty, or...?
Other random info...
The local pool shop tested it three weeks ago, and the results were free chlorine of 3 and salt at 3000 (and the month before that was free chlorine of 6 and salt at 3500).
Since the local pool shop test three weeks ago, I added one bag of salt, and we have used the pool for the first time ever, for the past five days straight.
Any ideas?
