Hi all, new pool owner here hoping to finish the installation of our Intex 12x24 SWG pool I have had sitting in our garage for 2 1/2 months. Due to work travel I'm just now getting around to set it up, I have all the blocks close to where they need to be (I laid the frame out to mark the spots) and leveled with in 1/4 inch of each other using my buddies laser, my ground is hard as concrete and full of rocks so that part sucked. I already have a Taylor K2006C test kit (was gift from friend) and I have the Taylor Salt test kit on hand. Also have the salt, pool chlorine, and bag of CYA for when I get it filled, no worries I have not talked to a pool store, been reading on this site for past couple months in preparation.
My plan and feel free to correct me, once filled, get chlorine in based the app to FC to about 3.0, add about 75% of salt needed, and about 75% of CYA needed and get it all circulating and then test eveything. Will post the results using the app. Been a long time since I have maintained a pool, about 30 years ago when I lived with my parents and even then i didn't do chemicals, just cleaning portion.
thanks for taking the time to read my rambling
