Hi All,
Just got a comprehensive water test done at Leslie's. Their test matches up perfectly to mine, so that's good. I have no way of testing phosphates, so that's why I took in a sample. Question... do I really have to treat for phosphates reading the results below? Everything is right on the money (patting myself on back). Phosphates they claim as high, if above 100 ppb. I just added a solar cover and noticed a spot or two of yellow algae the other day. They said that's all circulation related. Soooo.. do i go through the trouble of using Phosfree?
My test results:
FAC : 3
TAC : 3
CH : 200
CYA : 60
TA : 80 (just added up, to get to 90)
pH: 7.4
Copper : 0
Iron : 0
TDS : 950
Phos: 300 ppb (recommended below 100ppb by Leslies)
Thanks!
