Recently installed a new pool myself. Its been running for about 2 weeks. I just noticed some white flakes coming out of the returns and sitting on the bottom of the pool. From reading on the forum, it seems as though those are calcium flakes from my SWG. Last week I added a gallon of muriatic acid to lower my ph down from 8 to 7.4. Using the Taylor K-2006 test kit here are my current numbers.
FC - 1
PH - 8.0
TA - 300
CH - 300
CYA - I did the CYA test but the black dot never disappeared
Salt is at 3700
Whats the first step into getting rid of the flakes? Adding more of the acid to lower PH and TA? Thanks.
