There is 0 CYA in tap water. That shows how accurate the test strips are.
You will be adding acid on a regular basis to your pool water. Depends on how much evaporation you get (thus putting your alakaline water into the pool).
Your CH is actually pretty low, so that is good.
Once the pool is full, just add 3 ppm FC worth of chlorine, start dissolving 30 ppm of CYA, and add acid to get the pool to a ph in the 7's.
Is this a plaster pool? If so, you might even want to add a touch of calcium. But, wait until the pool has been mixing for a few days and test your CH. You may just be able to use some cal hypo for this summer and all will be good.
