Hello everyone! My wife and I picked up probably the smallest pool you could, an Intex 10' x 30" with the pump, so we could have some fun quarantined in our backyard this summer with our new baby. I've been reading through the ABCs and about the 5 or 6 critical tests, what they measure, proper ranges and how to adjust them. I have ordered a TF-100 kit that won't be here until Monday and I have purchased pH down (have Borax on hand for pH UP), a box of liquid chlorine, calcium hardness increaser (CA) , and Chlorine stabilizer (for CYA) from Home Depot.
We're just starting great weather here and I would like to start filling my pool up today. Is it ok for the pool to go Thursday/Friday/Saturday/Sunday without chemicals? Since my test kit won't arrive until Monday. Or is a certain amount of chlorine good to keep things sanitary until Moday. Any help would be appreciated!
