Wednesday morning - totally clear pool!! I can clearly see everything on the floor of the deep end including the screw heads in the drain. No cloudy water, no milky water, no green patches. The water is uniformly clear from shallow to deep end!

I didn't have a chance to test the water last night but did so first thing this morning. I only checked for Ph and chlorine right now because I don't want to tempt myself to mess with the TA. And I already know the CYA is in the 50-60 range.

FC: 10
TC: 10
Ph: 7.6

Since the chlorine fell so much within 24 hours I'm planning on checking again at noon and again tonight so I can monitor how much it falls overnight. I was surprised at first that the chlorine level was so much lower than yesterday morning but I'm not panicking yet - the pool is SO much clearer just through the overnight period that I'm hoping the usage will level off through today. I've looked at the CYA/chlorine chart that Watermom has on a sticky and gather that I should keep my chlorine in the 6-10 range for maintenance? I'll keep an eye on the Ph as well since I've learned from other posts that I shouldn't let that fall below 7.2.

We're going to have a stinkin' hot day here today and for the first time this season I'm planning on spending it in the pool!!!
