SLAM or do a OCLT first?

Sorry, should have been 2.5 +...not 12.5.

So, lets start again. You started at 13.5. You added 2.5 with SWG (I rounded from 2.7 to make it simple), So, you had a total of 13.5+2.5=16. You ended at eleven. Your FC demand today was 5.

That is confusing because you ran at 40% and gained 3 two days ago.

Run your 30% for tomorrow and let's see where you net out tomorrow night.

You can log SWG as a chemical. Did you setup your pool with 24 our output for SWG set to 3.1? If not go to gear on home page and edit the pool. Put the 3.1 in for your SWG 24 hour output.

Then log a chemical addition of 30% output, 12 hours for tonight. You can even go back and make the additions from when you started, just change the date. We'll figure out your daily demand and get you dialed in...

Do you have a solar cover?

30% for 8 hrs, right? (I assume your 12 hrs was for pump time) Comes out to 1.9.

The app is setup for the RJ 60+.

With regards to the solar cover, I don't. Thinking of getting one, but unsure of which. The diving board makes using a reel harder as well.

That's pretty good, and about right... you are about 1.5-2 FC demand. Run it at 25% for a couple days...

Start 11 + 2 = 13 - 11.5 end = 1.5

So your demand is variable 1.5 or 2 to 5 on the high end...Run it at 25% for a couple days...

Did you swim either today or yesterday? How many people?

One person yesterday.

I did not today. It was too cold out. 🥶

I'll adjust for 25% for tomorrow and retest at the usual time.
 
A year cause every month is different. But I’m “extra”

Do this. High end of the range, turn it down, low end of target turn it up. Spend a bunch more time swimming…just dance…

Your daily demand is about 2 (and daily production is also 2 with 8hrs@25%), and your FC is Currently 11.5.

If you want to target to be at 10 tomorrow night (high end of range)...where would you set it? (Hint, effects of adding)...

So, I adjusted yesterday morning but had to go out so I couldn't wait for the 30 minute pump run time to test.

Tested about 2 hrs after the pump was on at 11.

Tested this am 30 minutes after the pump started and it came in at 10.5. Still struggling with over 10, so I adjusted the SWG to give me 0.9 and I'll test around 6 tonight.

If the 2ppm daily is somewhat correct, I should drop to 9 to 9.5 this evening..Hopefully.

We got hit with the Canadian wildfires and it's been disgusting outside to swim. 😞

Is the pool that efficient for chlorine use or am I goofing something up?

It's crystal clear, I clean out the skimmers every other day or so and skim the top of the pool daily if not twice. Don't get it :unsure:
