Hi,
I am just learning how to balance the chemicals properly in my pool and would appreciate some help. Here's the info for my 46K gallon SWG pool:
FC: 8.5
pH: 7.4
TA: 100
CH: 150
CYA: 60
SALT: 2200
CSA: -0.52
I am working on bringing the FC level down to 4 and am planning to add 400lbs of salt to address the issue with the salt level.
The CH level appears low as well. However, we appear to have a significant amount of scale buildup along the deep end tile under a raised stone wall that borders the pool (see attached photo) and along the tanning ledge tile. Should we go ahead and raise the CH level to ~350-400 regardless? I'm assuming we would do that by adding calcium chloride (~100lbs) or calcium chloride dihydrate (~140lbs)?
If the CH level is low, why are we getting scale buildup? How do we get rid of the scale on the pool wall and prevent it from coming back?
