Edit2: forgot to mention I used kemtek 10% chlorinating liquid.
Alright so here are all my test results this morning. Worth mentioning that the SWCG did run all night long on my normal pump schedule of 8pm-6am.
The water I tested was from elbow deep of the deep end of my pool.
I’ve included photos to make sure I am getting the correct colors/changes vs what should be expected.
FC - 7 - stupidly I decided to take photos after this test, but I am confident in this one by now.
CC - 0.5-1 this is the first photo, 1 drop 871 seemed VERY faintly pink still, more faint than the photo (which is after 2 drops 871), so I added another drop to be sure. I thought my mind was playing tricks on me.
CH - 200 - this is the 2nd photo, showing the first indication of blue. Should it be more blue?
TA - test 1 - 300, test 2 - 260-300 - I performed twice because I didn’t get photos the first time. This is photos 3-7, from 26 drops in photo 3 to 30 drops in photo 7. I wasn’t sure how red it should be hence numerous photos.
CYA - <30? - see photo 8. This is the CYA cylinder filled to the 30 mark. This is exactly as it looked the first time I did it.
SC - 4000 or 4200ppm - see photo 9-10, photo 11 will be in a post below this due to photo limit. Photo 9 is how yellow the water was after 1 drop 0630. Photo 10 is after 20 drops of 0718 and photo 11 is after 21 drops 0718. Hence the range I gave.
In the post below will be my pH and 21 drops 0718 SC result.
Edit: for readability
