Good morning!

I have my log, and now need help figuring out how much bleach to add to each bottle for my parents to put in for me while I’m away! These are recorded in my pool math log too. The goal with FC was to bump to 5 each time.

Monday 7 am:
FC 1.2
Cc 0.4
pH 7.4
TA 100
CH 20
CYA less than 30 (assumed 20)
-added 41 oz 7.5 % bleach, 8.8 oz dry stabilizer

Monday 5:30 pm (after a day of full sun and heavy use)
FC 2.5
Cc 0
-added 27 oz of 7.5% bleach

Tuesday 6:15 am
FC 4
Cc 0.5
Cya 30
-added 11 oz 7.5% bleach

Tuesday 6:40 pm (after a day of light/moderate rain on and off, overcast and light use)
FC 3
Cc 0
- added 22 oz 7.5% bleach

Wednesday 630 am
FC 4.5
Cc 0.5
-added 5.4 oz 7.5% bleach

Wednesday 7 pm (after a day of full sun, light morning rain, extra heavy use)
FC 1.5
Cc 0

This morning (Thursday 7 am)
FC 4.5
Cc 0.5
Ph 7.0

Cya less than 30 (assumed 15-20, could still faintly see dot with a quick glance to the top of the vial)

1 liter of 7.5% will add 3.4ppm of FC. I think that would be close enough if you are on vacation and no one is using the pool. So I might round it up to 1/2 a jug just to make it easier.
