Hello! So our pool was installed early July. After it was full we had the first test done at pool store. The printout we received said to add calcium, salt and stabilizer. The person at the store said not to add the stabilizer because were using salt.
3 weeks later we have re tested and again it says to add calcium, stabilizer oxy shock and ph down. This time they said only worry about ph down and oxy shock because we had very high ph 8.2 and very high chloramines. And not to worry about calcium and stabilizer. Also to turn down swg because the excessive chlorine generation was causing the chloramines. So we turned down to 40% running 24 hours.
3rd test 2 weeks later, basically same as 2nd, high chloramines, ph and free chlorine. Said to oxy shock again and add algaecide and turn down 20%.
Should i be concerned about stab and calcium? At store he said only add oxy shock when they said to but on package it says to add weekly 129gram for maintenance?
