First time pool owner here. We moved into our house about 6 weeks ago and the pool guy's last day was this Monday. I received my TF-100 kit today and got some readings that I could use some guidance on:
FC 1.5 (confirmed by both chlorine tests that came with the kit)
CC 0
CH 825
TA 100
CYA 100
PH 7.6
It's a 24.5K gallon pool with a spa waterfall, and currently on trichlor pucks on maximum output (2 pucks remaining in the hopper). The filter pump runs about 14 hours per day and the Polaris 280 (aka "Dizzy") runs about 4 hours per day. The water isn't cloudy, but not sparkling either, and I don't have any visible algae -- however I'm afraid it's going to bloom once the warm weather hits and I'm not on top of it.
For what it's worth, we've had a decent amount of rain over the past two days.
Thanks in advance for any assistance. I've been lurking on this site and have learned a lot already.
