My multiport issue is solved, so now I am just working on getting that "perfect" pool water. At the moment, the water is slightly hazy. I'm not sure that it even has any green hint to it. Here are the results from my morning testing:

FC= 20
CC= 0
pH=7.2
Alk= 85

I know that the pH is a touch low. I have always had difficulty in maintaining a higher pH. it was a 6.8 yesterday, so I added some pH plus (had it left over from last season - next time I'll use the BBB method).

Here are my questions:
1) How do I maintain a more controlled pH?
2) Do my readings indicate that my pool is safe to swim in? I'd really like to get in to vacuum it out.
3) How do I go from being a "restricted user" to a regular one?
