Wet Edge Startup

[OrlandoBull]

So, I think I am about 10-days from getting water in my pool. I am doing Prism Matrix for the finish, the WE startup guide has the following;

TA - 80-100
PH - 7.2-7.6
CYA - 30-50 (after day 7)
CH - 250-275

The startup guide basically takes me through the first 28 days. My questions are... CH and CYA seem a bit low, TA maybe a touch high? Of course, I have my pool math app set up for salt, so maybe the first month with liquid chlorine will be a bit different, just trying to get myself prepared. As an OB, I don't really have anyone doing my startup. Plaster company needs monthly pool store numbers to honor warranty (which I am sure I'll do for maybe a year before I give up on that waste of time).

I guess my basic question is... Does anyone see any issues with trying to hit their numbers for the 28-day startup, then switching to pool math ranges once I add the salt?

Follow the WE start up guide to the letter for that first month. Does it mention anything like sequestrant also? Some plaster finishes do.
You need to follow it to the letter to protect your warranty.

After that..... you can add salt, but you'll already have your FC at the desired level while the salt is dissolving and brushing it for a day or two. Only after that do you want to <power up> the SWG. You also can follow TFP recommended levels then.

Don't forget to register your warranty online.
