Hi
Hope you can help.
Just got my 18,000 gal in ground pool up and running, filled on Friday, the SWG has been running since Saturday morning.
On testing this morning the test strip showed low for Chlorine, so I took it to a local store to have it more accurately tested and the results were as follows
Salt 3,000 (as of yesterday, was low until then)
Chlorine - 0%
CYA 5ppm
the hardness and ALK is off right now but I dont believe that has a great effect on the chlorine.
I have now got the T-15 cell set to 60% and on super chlorinate for 24 hours.
How long does it take for the chlorine to rise? Or should I be shocking the pool manually? Only reason I have not is that I want to make sure the cell is doing its job. The diagnostics indicate it is.
Help for a newbie anyone?
