Newbie but no ourside pool maintenance company

HI! You have come to the right place.

You can dose the FC up the SLAM level for you CYA. I have a link that will show you those numbers BUT you MUST know your CYA level. This test is the one that the pool stores get wrong the most so it is MUCH safer if you have your own test kit.

You can look in my siggy to see the test kits we use and love!
