While waiting on your test kit to get in add some bleach to your pool, you don't say how big it is so it is hard to say how much, but around 1/4 gallon for each 10,000 gallon of water per day is astarting point

Sounds like a great plan! You are correct, once you start testing and doing it becomes a lot clearer. And simpler too!

Sorry, I thought I had my signature showing. Still trying to figure out the mechanics. Anyway my pool size is 24,300 gallons.
