This is my first post so I apologize for any misses on protocol for asking for help.
I just had a pool installed and handed over to me in late December in the San Diego area. It's a ~25k gallon SWG fed pool. It's been chilly here for a while and a rather wet "winter" for this area. I have downloaded PoolMath on my phone and have input a couple of results to it. A few days ago my pH was high at 8.0. So I added MA to it per the suggestions on the app. CSI measured at that time (before adding MA) was -0.51. Pool is nice and crystal clear. Pump runs 8hrs a day everyday. Nothing suggest algae at all. I brush it a few times a week. Have definitely had rain here a lot though over the past 2 weeks.
But today I tested the water and got the following results:
FC = 4.6
CC = 0
pH = 7.4
TA = 60
CH = 220
CYA = 80
Salt = 3000
Temp = 51
CSI = -1.07
The last time I tested the water a few days ago CSI was at -0.51. I am worried that such a low CSI will start to show scaling but perhaps I am just watching it too closely? Hoping someone with more experience than I can shed some insight into why/how I can get my CSI up to +/-0.6 range (preferably closer to 0.
Any help will be appreciated.
