With a simple setup you can probably run 1k or even less and still skim and power up the SWG flow sensor.
I will have to pickup another gallon, I've used all of the other and still not in range. I really don't like using it, had some vapor hit my nose the other night.It does evaporate through the vented cap that many of the bottles have. (Why the recommendations are to keep them away from any metals..... like in your garage), but they usually retain most of their potency.
That said, any bottle/bag can be a dud or beyond its shelf life.
However. If the PH is above 8 or 8.2 (depending on the test kit), it will read as 8 or 8.2. So you dose your 8.8 and it lowers to 8.4 and still looks like 8.2.
Mix for 15 mins, retest, and dose until it's in range. This goes for high and also low.
The TA won't move quickly and takes time. It will come down on its own as you manage the PH. If you want to speed it along, manage the PH in the low 7s instead of the SWG preferred high 7s.
Pour it a couple of inches from the water. I was dumping it at eye level like an idiot, for a long time, getting splashed and sucking it all in.
Until the yard is cleaned up, the pool will be dusty. You use the chemistry to prove the difference between unsightly and unsanitary.
Welp. Life experience has taught me that if he wasn't having a better pool than you, it would be cars. Or golf. Or his career. Or all the above. Treat him like the pool store. Smile and nod and let it go in one ear and out the other.
yep getting splashed and inhaling it isn't cool at all.Pour it a couple of inches from the water. I was dumping it at eye level like an idiot, for a long time, getting splashed and sucking it all in.

At any time if you suspect more than dirt, Overnight Chlorine Loss Test to remove the sun from the equation. If you lose FC with no UV/sun, something is brewing. Don't come ask if you should, come tell us you are awaiting the results and we'll chat about idiot in laws while we all await with you.
If you pass, and can attest that the FC stayed free and clear above minimum going forward, you'll be on good ground to say it's just dirty.

You know I haven’t even checked…I’ll do that and report back. I do know our county water doesn’t treat the ph like our city does. Our AGP that we have at the other house is always 7.6, it always stayed there for the 7 years we had the pool.
My Ph test of the pool water this morning was 7.8, this evening it was 8.2.
We need the TA as it may tell the rest of the story. I scrolled up a ways but didn't see it posted.
220 was my TA at last test.
So this is likely bringing the PH up and it will hopefully quiet down some as it gets closer to in range. You can speed it along by operating in the low 7s. Once the TA is handling itself at 100 or less, switch to high 7s.
I just turned mine down on 2 consecutive Sundays, after needing 60 % since June. Daily demand is falling off a cliff for many right now, or will be soon enough for the others.
Yup. 10+ FC tends to make the PH read high.
