I am converting our pool to SWCG and adjusting the chemicals prior to installing the system. Even though I have the levels where I think they should be, my CSI is lower than I would like.
The water temperature is currently 84, recently coming up from 80 a few days ago.
Since all the individual parameters are within the expected range other than CH, which I have been increasing, I was surprised to see the CSI below -0.3 which is my lowest comfortable level.
Any comments on why this is happening and what I can do to raise the CSI without taking the other parameters out of range?
Parameter | Test Result | Target |
FC | 6.0 | 4-11 |
pH | 7.4 | 7.2-7.8 |
TA | 80 | 60-80 |
CH | 325 | 350-450 |
CYA | 80 | 70-80 |
Salt | 3,400 | 3,000-4,500 |
BOR | 50 | 30-50 |
CSI | -0.46 | -0.6 to +0.6 |
