Good morning, I've recently fired the pool company and taken over the care of my pool- it certainly is an education! It's become clear to me that TFP is an authority on pool care and I'm grateful for this resource. One question- why are the TFP recommended levels different than what I see widely elsewhere on the web? For instance, TFP recommends ideal Alkalinity levels at 60-80 whereas everywhere else I see 80-120. TFP recommends ideal PH 7.6-7.8 whereas elsewhere I see 7.4-7.6. And so on with differences in CH, CYA, FC, etc.
I am using the TFP recommendations and pool looks great but I'm curious why everywhere else (including pool stores) I see different recommendations. Thanks for any insight!
