Is water good enough for family to go swimming?

[ady5]

I’ve been working hard over the last few weeks to get the pool in proper shape. I had very high cya levels from using tri-chor. Here are my levels at this moment

FC 4.8
CC 0.2
PH 7.8
ALK 80
CH 200
CYA 60-70

Is the water safe to go swimming? I put in liquid chlorine about 3 hours ago to get the levels up to 7 so it’s probably still going up, but the family really wants to go in.

Thanks,

Ady

You can safely swim in a pool as long as the FC is above the minimum and at or below SLAM level based on your CYA. You must also be able to see the bottom of the pool in the deep end of the pool. The pH should be in the 7's.

So I say, go swimming! (as long as you can see the bottom of the pool!).
