Well, the pool is up and running and I just tested the water. I actually did my first test two days after the pool was filled but my results were off the chart because I read the liquid chlorine ratio incorrectly and poured a gallon and a half of chlorine into the pool. The numbers were as follows: CYA - dot never disappeared!
FC 17.5 ppm. (took 35 drops to clear)
CC 1
TC 18.5 ppm
TA 80 ppm
CH 200 ppm
K-1000 results - the chlorine side was dark orange
. pH was 7.8
After pouring a little over half a gallon of liquid chlorine in here are the current numbers. I think they look better but I need your expert eyes to "grade" me on my "chemistry report."
CYA - still could see the dot clearly through the whole test
FC 7.5 ppm (15 drops to clear)
CC 1
TC 8.5 ppm
TA 90
CH 250 ppm
K-1000 results - chlorine 5. pH 7.5
