I've had my pool for 4 years now. Was too intimidated by the TF test kit in the past, but after using Poolrx for the last year, I noticed bright blue staining to my white plaster. Took sample to Leslie's 7/2/22, Had .3ppm copper. Added CuLator to skimmer. Now with new replaceement TF100 agents, I'm trying to get things right. Removed all the pucks from my feeder as my CYA read 111 that day and started with liquid 12% chlorine. Here are my test results early this morning. pool temp 90
FC 1
PH 8.2 (or higher?)
TA160
CH 475
CYA 70
TC 1.5
Added 96oz 20% Muriac acid (math said 83oz 29%) 96oz 12% liquid pool bleach
At 11am, I did a retest:
FC 0
PH 7.2
TA 130
CH 450
CYA 60-70 (been reading tips to get a better reading)
could not get a TC as my water never got pink... Is it possible to have chlorine get worse after adding all that? I just threw in the last 17oz of bleach I had at this point, getting more today. Tips on where to go from here? Keep adding chlorine on the daily? Best copper stain remover? FYI my pool water has been clear and blue this whole time...
