I recieved my TF100 test kit and performed my first set of tests yesterday. It was pretty well as expected and bad. haha. the following are my readings i came up with for my 15,000 gallon above ground pool
FC- 0.5 or less
PH- 8.2
TA - 180
CH- 100
CYA - 0
I have a tub of chlorine tablets leftover from the previous owner so i will use those till i run out but i am planning on going and getting a couple gallons of bleach today to get the fc to where it needs to be.
I ordered a 4lb bag of Poolmate Stabilizer should be here wednesday
I will also get a gallon of muriatic acid today to lower PH
from my understanding from the app, once i lower the pH the TA should be corrected as well right?
is there an order that i should add these chemicals? I read that after stabilizer is added to leave pump on for 24 hrs
any other advice?
thanks!
