strange chlorine level behavior

[adridimo]

I'll use distilled water and try! thank you again!!!

If you use distilled water, that should work well enough.

Pool Water........Distilled Water.....Multiply by

..........1...........................1...............................2

Hello guys,

i do not know what to do. I've tryed to test pool water 1:1 with distilled water. Here the resoult already doubled:
FC: 0.56ppm
CC: 6.22ppm
TC: 6.78ppm

Is that possible? Water is now cristal clear.

How can I handle the situation till new test arrive?

I'm in PANIC.

I did not trust the value of the diluited water and I did the test again on plain pool water:

PH 7.4
CYA 57ppm
FC 5 ppm
CC 0.8 ppm
TC 5.8 ppm
TA 160 ppm
CaH 218 ppm

should I consider this values? If yes how can I go haed? SLAM without proper test or increse the CL to 7ppm/9ppm?

Help me please.

The high CC value is not possible unless you have added non chlorine shock. Check to be sure the distilled water was not adulterated.

Mknauss, I've used the water that we use for ironing. Do you think I can trust to the secondo set of measure (plain poll water)? What do I do? Still SLAM?

Now is also raining a lot and my skimmer pool seems an infinite edge.. 15cm on rain in less then one our.

You cannot follow the SLAM Process without a proper FC test kit.

I would add 5 ppm FC worth of liquid chlorine each day until you can get a proper kit.

OK, I'll do like this. Thank you very much for your help!!

Try some new clean distilled water.
