I just started noticing that the total chlorine indicator on my test strips is well beyond the highest color level (should be almost white), but the free chlorine level is also quite high. While the levels appear similar, it might be fair to say that the CC is higher than FC.
The water looks clear, no obvious smell, and otherwise nothing seems to be an issue. Currently I'm running a boost on the salt system in attempt to mini-shock the pool.
Is this the right course of action? Are both levels being high normal?
We did just have a hurricane come through, but beyond some extra dirt and needing to clean the filter, nothing else has happened to the water.
Thanks for any insights.
