Hi TFP!
Firstly, thank you to everyone involved in this community - as a new pool owner the knowledge I've gained reading through the forums has been invaluable. I'm a first time pool owner with two little kids and am really concerned the pool is safe for them to swim in. I just got my TF-100 kit in, signed up for premium Pool Math and ran my tests. Based on the results I have to bring my CH up, TA down and FC up. I'm assuming bringing the TA down will mean I will then also need to increase the PH. Is there any order I should be proceeding with in making these adjustments? My TA seems really high based on the Pool Math recommendations so I'm not sure if I need to lower this piecemeal to not plummet the PH. Any help is greatly appreciated!
One other thing that keeps me up at night - there's no concern with little kids swimming in FC of 6-7 ppm?
FC - 5
CC - 0.5
PH - 7.8
TA - 130
CH - 250
CYA - 80
Thanks!
