Hi everyone. We are like many others, trying to beat the NC heat by cooling off in a pool. We just finished filling the pool yesterday with our well water. I thought for sure with the high temps it would be green before it was done filling, surprisingly it hasn't, but I know it will happen if I don't get my chemicals in it asap. I do not have a very good testing kit yet only one from Walmart that doesn't test for some things. So far this is what my test is reading....
chlorine-0
Ph-6.8
TA-30
TH-40
And with the CYA the dot never disappeared
So, this is my starting point & I find the whole thing very overwhelming. (the abbreviations are hard to get used to)
I was playing around with the pool calculator but I'm not sure if it's coming out right since I don't have test results to put in for everything but this is what I got
63oz bleach
34oz borax
125oz baking soda
Can someone please tell me if this is right? TIA
