    Default Re: Pool is gross but not ready to open it yet...

    So here's an update on my pool.... cleaned out the debris in pool and replaced filters...that helped a lot.

    Ran tests this morning and here's what I got:
    SWG, 25K gallons

    Chlorine:
    FC: 5ppm
    CC: .5 ppm
    pH: around 7.0-7.1
    CYA: 35ppm
    TA: 40ppm

    Guess I need to get CYA up higher for CWG pool.

    Can't really find buckets of dichlor here... I can find tri-chlor and calcium hypo
    I can find dichlor at $3/lbs in 5lb box

    So, any advice?
