Hello all,
Long time Lurker.
We have a new pool filling now that should be full by tonight, hot tub full last night. BUT no electric is hooked up yet until Monday. (I hope) i.e. NO PUMPS to run
17x34 with 7x7 hot tub with spillover. Quartscapes Super Blue. Travertine Coping, Split face rock feature wall with three LED Sheer Decents, Five Pentair Microbrite lights. All Pentair Equipment (2 pumps plus booster). Cartridge Filters, and a heater that will remain off for a couple weeks. Chlorinator.
Will be using TFP Method, but using chlorinator to boost CYA and Chlorine once pumps are running for a few weeks.
Initial Numbers of Full Hot tub with no pump running.
FC 1
CC2
CYA Under 20
PH over 8 on Test, 9.6 on ph meter
CH 25
TA 150
Pool Builder is hiring a girl to maintain levels for 2 weeks. No sequestrant added. No Chemicals have been added to water at all to this point.
Should I do anything until I turn on pumps? I know I need to get chlorine and CYA up and acid down.
Should I dilute and pour very slowly and stir in manually or wait until pumps before adding any chemicals?
I will Post Pictures soon.
Thanks
