finally got the test kit and will be starting the SLAM process today. I added 2 bags of salt per the SWG vendors recommendation. It was at 3100, they recommend 3500, it's actually at 3600 now. Water level was a little on the low side so yesterday i added some. Hopefully that will bring the CYA down a little. Either way i have to get this started. I am going to create a baseline test with the new kit today. had to lower the PH it was around 7.8. should be down to 7.3 when i test again.
ok here goes.
Great. That’s what I did. I’ll check again tonight and then in the morning again
It’s off now. Thanks for walking me through my first attempt at this.
Morning did initial test FC was 1.5. added what was needed to get to 20ppm.
Nothing wrong, it's all good. Test in the morning and hopefully it'll start retaining more of the slam level bringing you to the ultimate OCLT at some point. Keep at it and maintain a slam level a few times a day along with a good thorough brushing at least once a day. Make sure filter psi doesn't rise more then 25% of clean filter pressure otherwise you will need to open the filter and hose off the cartridges. Don't check the CC at this point until the chlorine holds.
