New pool, water was filled up last Sunday, pumps turned on Sep. 7th. I have added the following this week all based on the Pool Math app:
1. To lower the Ph - Muriatic Acid
2. Liquid chlorine - 12.5% solution
3. CYA - added two gallons
So testing this morning yielded:
FC - 1 ppm, added chlorine this morning to target of 4 - so far have added 1 gallon during the week to include this morning.
Ph - 7.5 - nothing added
TA - 80 - nothing added
CH - 200 - pool math says add 23 lbs of calcium chloride - is that right???
CYA - 55 - says add 2 quarts 5 oz, what should my target be as I don't want to get it to high..correct?
CSI - (-0.35)
Temp - 82 F
Salt - 0 - I will use my SWG, but from reading I should not start using it until 30 days and then add salt. btw, how do I test for salt ppm?
BOR - no tests, I have the TF-100, but don't see this test, other than the daily CL/Ph tester, is that the number I should use for this test?
So add the CYA and 23 lbs of Calcium Chloride?
Thanks from a newbie! Please be gentle!! hahah
