New pool owner and trying to gather as much advice as possible. My pool store sticks to the 1-4 level for chlorine. The owner even said the lower I can have it the better and he would not go above four.
Right now, i am using tabs (I understand the negatives of them).
My FC levels the last couple of days days have been 9, 8.5, and today, 8.
I am using the TF-Pro Test. With that much chlorine, do I necessarily have to have a tablet in the skimmer at all times or can I just average a certain amount each week. For instance, put one on Monday and another Thursday (even if I have zero in on Wednesday), as long as my levels are fine.
I just don’t want too much chlorine in my pool to harm our skin and bodies as well as the liner.
Here are all my test numbers:
FC: 8.0
pH: 7.8
TA: 150
CH: 150
CYA: 60
