Opening the pool this year was a crapshoot. With a new baby distracting us, spring flooding and pump issues we opened late to the swampiest swamp we've ever had. After a week of slamming it was finally clear so we let the FC drift down. Today I tested with the following results:
FC: 6.5
CYA: 60
PH: strangely clear with a tint with 5 drops ( see attached photo), more like 7.5 ish with 10 drops. I also used a calibrated PH pen and got 7.4
TA: 170
I want to turn on the SWG, would the high TA be bad for the cell? We are planning to have people over on Saturday, what is the best plan of action to get the TA level in line? Should I be worried about the diluted PH test?
