Hey I'm a new pool owner and have been reading the forum for a few weeks now. Just got a Taylor k2006 here are my first results:
FC: 3.2ppm
CC: 0.4ppm
PH: 7.7
TA: 160 ppm
CH: 720 ppm
CYA: crazy high did two dilutions and got a reading about 85
What do I need to do? I'm assuming partial drain and refill to lower CYA? It seems like the CYA lowering stuff is pretty hit or miss. Also My CH looks off the charts. I may have completely screwed that one up. Also it looks like my FC needs to be at least 5x higher for my CYA level.
I went to the big pool store near me about 2 weeks ago and got
CH: 230
TA: 115
CYA: 120
I know the pool store isn't the most reliable, but I'm concerned about my measurements for CYA and CH, especially since this is my first time. I'm going to run a sample over to the pool store to see if maybe my pool has drastically changed in the past 2 weeks.
