Hi guys,
Thanks for the great site and help. I think I understand everything but wanted a sanity check.
Replaced liner and filled the pool 10 days ago. My pool levels as of last night. Using the TF100 kit.
FC 6.5
CC 0
pH 7.0
TA 50
CH 0
CYA 50
salt 3200
My PH was 7.6 after the clean fill. Memphis water so its pretty balanced out of the tap.
PH seems to have dropped to 6.8 when I added 10 pounds of CYA (is that a thing?). I used a sock over the return and it took a little over 2 days to disolve it all with squeezes and multiple rounds of sock fills. Is 50 enough or do I need to shoot all the way to 70 right out of the gate? I have a new IC40 SWG.
Do I do anything about PH? Or leave it? I have pointed my returns up to make aeration but it has only moved the needle .2 from 6.8 to 7.0.
My TA could be considered on the low side as well.
My FC was 10 when it was all given over to me 5 days ago. So I turned off my SWG and it has not been losing a ton of chlorine every day.
When I aerate, i get some floating bubbles. Not crazy but they float for about half of the length of the pool before they pop/disappear. Is this due to no CH possibly? Salt? CYA granules?
Pool looks amazing even though the trees are all pooping seeds and stuff right now. My robot (M400) is working like a champ. He is fun to watch and I am a little obsessed with all of this really. First pool! My wife thinks im being neurotic but Im just having fun trying to dial it in.
I am not sure if my signature is working (doesnt show up in preview), so I am pasting it below manually.
