Thanks, what do you put it the field for quantity of bleach.

If you want to find out how much one quart of 6% bleach will raise your chlorine level, put in .25 since one quart is equal to one-fourth of a gallon. If you want to know about half a gallon, put .5, or if you want to know how much a 3 quart jug will raise it (since that is how much is in most of the bottles sold these days), you put .75. Hope this helps.

Thanks so much. While I have you Ive just converted over to bleach. My question is since my cya is 100 the amount of chlorine that I need to use is above the 5 on the scale. How do I measure. My Fc is 3 my cc is 0. My tc is 2.If fc + cc + tc why is my reading lower which is more important.

I'm guessing that was just a type-o. FC+CC=TC So, if your FC is 3 and your CC is 0 then your TC will also be 3. The CC is important because if it's more than .5 then you need to bring your chlorine up to "shock" level (depends on your CYA level) to get rid of the "useless" chlorine.

Thanks it was a type-o. What i need to know is since my cya is 100 and I need to have my level between 5 and 8 and the test kit only goes to 5, should i depend on the fc reading. When i ran my test fc was 3 and tc was 2 why are they not the same??
