Hi TFP friends,
I’ve had some practice with an above ground pool, but just had a fiberglass pool installed. The pool came with a chlorinator that the crew filled with tabs when they installed it, but I’ve been using 12.5% liquid chlorine following the suggestions here. I added some granule CYA but was hesitant to add too much because I was unsure what the tabs would do. It’s been a few weeks and my CYA is still below 30. The dot never disappears on my test kit. Would you suggest I add more? Also, the pool company said I needed to add jacks pink stuff weekly which I’m doing. PH has been at 7.4 pool math says it should be 7.6. The water is looking great, just looking for reassurance that I’m on the right track. Thanks!
