Newbie here. I've had my pool for a whole 3 weeks now and my head is spinning as I get my TFP bachelors degree in chemistry.
I'm trying to figure out what shock level I need to get to for treatment. Id rather move to liquid chlorine rather than keep buying powder from the big guys. Based on my results they are suggesting 5lbs per treatment in my 37k gallon chlorine pool. My last test from "Leslies Bank & Loan Co" was the following:
pH 7.4
ALK 100
CYA 80
FAC 2
TAC 2
Po 100
CH 250
When I test my FC at home I have been north of 5 every time. Following the instructions on my F-1004 exactly. As a matter of fact I have never been below the darkest pink reading 5 Cl and 10 Br shade. Color might look off in the pic but I have circled the closest match.
