Our newly installed 27’ round, 54” height above ground pool is just finishing filling up now. I just wanted to make sure I am on track with my plan to start adding chemicals and that I am using the pool math app correctly to determine appropriate amounts.
From what I’ve read on TFP I need to add my CYA (stabilizer) first using the sock method. According to the Pool Math app, with 0 CYA, I should be putting in about 7 lb. 4 oz of stabilizer. Does this sound correct? I plan to add this slowly and then after the last dose of stabilizer, wait at least 10 minutes, and then I plan to start adding my chlorine to get it to 2 ppm. According to the pool math app, with chlorine being 0, it’s showing to add about 49 oz. Chlorine. From there, I plan to use my Taylor k-2006 test to check ph and alkalinity and adjust as needed. Thank you for any input, would love to make sure I’m starting things off correctly!
