Hi All,
Build details in signature.
We have a new build that we filled with water March 2nd 2022. The builder came out and did the mechanical startup, added initial chemicals, and orientation shortly after. On March 7th the builder said in 30-40 days they were going to come out and start the salt cell. As of today (March 27th) our levels are"
pH - 8.2
Alkalinity 150
FC - .5
CYA90 Edited: 35
With the salt cell being turned on in 2-3 weeks do we need to balance the water any differently than the Pool Math app states for a SWG pool our size? What would be the best approach for balancing the water knowing the salt cell will not be turned on for a few weeks?
EDIT: Additional notes i left out.
I did fail to mention that we have a deck chlorinator that was unable to be finalized at startup as there was too much shotcrete in the hole. The builder has to come out and fix that. In the mean time they gave us a chlorine float dispenser which they added 3 pucks (i have no idea of what specifically) and gave us a clear bag of more pucks (which i added 2 to when the 3 were just about dissolved)..
We were told the chlorinator could be used during winter when it is too cold for the SWG.
Thank you!
