I didn't test my water right at opening because I thought I'd give my SWG a chance to catch up from the winter's sleep. Pool opening never gives me any surprises, the water is always as clear as the summer before. But...
My CC is 2.0
FC = 5.5
pH =7.6
TA = 225
CH = 180
CYA = 40
Salt = 3100
Temp = 67
I'll be getting the CYA up to 70 in a week or two- I had to replace a bunch of water last year to get the CH down and didn't have enough spare CYA lying around to finish this last year.
The TA has always been high, and I just built a spray feature to use this year to aereate the water to fix this one.
Nearly all of the references to SLAMming relate to problem water, which I don't have, but the CC is 2.0. What is my best course of action? Can I knock it down with the SWG on super-chlorinate for 24 hrs, or will I have to add bleach? I've never had an algea problem, it seems like overkill to go through a full slam treatment.
