Hi, I need some help. I'm new to maintaining my own pool. I have read a lot but there's a lot to take in and much to learn. I tried using the PoolMath calc but it's overwhelming for me (I am understanding the more I look at it and plug in numbers.) Is the Pool Math iOS app easier to understand and recommended for beginners?
My pump runs 8-9 hours a day. Half the time it's a lower RPM for circulation and the other half the RPM is higher for the vacuum and the sheer descent. SWG is at 70%. Water temp was 76 degrees at time was 1:30 PM for my test:
FC 3.0
CC 0
PH 8.3 (lower PH for acid demand 4 drops)
TA 170
CH 450
CYA 32
Salt 2400
Saturation Index 1.25
Water Temp: 76
Here's what I believe I need to do:
Lower PH (Muriatic Acid pH Adjuster 31%)
Lower TA (Muriatic Acid pH Adjuster 31%)
Raise CYA (Pool Time Chlorine Stabilizer 5 lbs. Balancer)
Should I increase SWG 70% higher? How do I know when the SWG needs replacing?
Am I reading my test results and making the necessary changes?
Thank you!
