okay a bit confused here my new heatpump says not to go over 5ppm of Clr (it has a TI core)

but my pool is currently at 8 FC and 1-3CC calc say i need a shock of 12 FC to break this and get my water clear

is it okay to to keep this at shock levels?

EDIT no long using the taylor kit using the Color Q now cause my butt is so color even the taylor made me mad lol
 
fc=6.46 (added bleach for shock of 13-14) falling from last test (8 .xx)
cc=.72 - falling from last test (3.xx)
ph=7.1 (baking soda should help a little, if TA goes back to 100 i'll air it out again and keep putting in soda, up from 6.9 last test
ta=72 (added backing soda) down from 101 last test
ch=178 (i need to buy more will get soon) up from 177 last test
cya=21 ( my pool is indoors cya 20 is great for me i aim for 20-30) down from 22 last test

again i'm using the color Q pro 11 for testing
temp=82

i put in 121oz of 8.25% bleach to shock it, it says i only need 99oz but since i check the levels until tomorrow night (once a day due to work) the little extra wont hurt.

so this means 48 hours i lost ~2.5 FC and ~2.3CC ( i forgot to do anything with the pool yesterday LOL dang it)
