Hello. I am new to TFP but looking forward to being apart of this great community. I got my first tf100 test kit today and I’m ready to start the slam process. Below are my test results.
ph- 7.2-7.5
Ta-120
fc-0
cc-0
cya-20
I have 2 questions I’m hoping to get some advice on. 1) should I start the slam process with a cya of 20 so I will have to use less chrlorine and raise it to 30 after the slam process is complete or raise it to 30 before starting the slam process? It will be a sunny day in Michigan and 85 degrees when I plan to start the slam process. If ok to wait when should I raise the cya? 2) Over the course of the past week I have added 10 lbs of dichlor and 73% cal hypo and 12 gallons of 10% liquid chlorine which never resulted in any fc and high levels of cc (10 ppm). Given I haven’t got a fc reading after adding all this chlorine in the past I’m curious if there’s a way to know how much chlorine I will have to add to reach shock level as I did not register any fc when adding the recommended amount per the calculator previously.
Thanks for any advice!
