wow! at first reading I thought this is too confusing, but after reading it again, it isn't really. I found a link to a bleach calculator that I could download and I also found a link to a pool calculator for everything. I am going to go with your advise, but I am only going to go to around 11 because the water is really clear right now. I am heading out to buy a new test kit that will give me readings for a higher chlorine level than the one I have now. It only goes up to 3.
I really appreciate the help. Researching on the internet can be overwhelming with the information that is out there. This is our first major pool since moving to Arizona, it is a bit different than the pool we had back east. We are finding that a lot of things are done differently here because of the heat.
