Redneck aeration!

[Dr2Smoke]

Here's the setup I use to aerate my pool. I'm currently in the process of lowering TA with MA + aeration. I'm almost there! Today's chemistry results:
FC: 9.5
TC: 9.5
CYA: 55
PH: 7.2
TA: 125
CH: 225
Borates: 40
Temp: 76

I use bleach to sanitize.

"Thar she blows!" Numbers are looking very good.

Thanks man! I'm very happy to have found TFP so early on in my pool ownership.

Ugh, finally tested my fill water and found that the TA is 220. That explains a lot.

You mean TC, not CC, right? TC is your total chlorine - FC (free chlorine) + CC (combined chlorine).
A CC value of 9.5 is really really high...

Yes, I definitely meant TC. Thanks for catching that! I'll edit the original post to be correct.
