I opened my 24 agp 2 days ago and have been fixing a leak in the return. Water weas crystal clear! 14k gallons or so.

Just tested:

FC - 13
CC - 0
TC -13
PH - 7 or so
Alk - 110
Cal - 40
CYA - 40
Temp - 68

I'm leaving it uncovered (no solar) for a day or two to lower clorine a touch. Do I need to add anything other than something to raise ph a bit (borax?)?

Those are nice test results. Good work. No hurry on the pH....if you are using bleach, it'll come up a little on it's own. If you're using pucks, pH will drop....sometimes somewhat quickly.

Thanks Dave for the reply. Just bleach (nothing this year yet - the people who closed the pool for me loaded it up) and borax and baking soda last year. Oh and one treatment of powdered CYA. I'll keep testing every few days until I get rid of the regents so I can get the new kit
