Is CC what determines if you need to shock ? And what is the normal reading if you don't need to shock? again Thanks Jerry

Re: spring startup
There's no absolute answer; most of the time, if it's more than the minimum reading, shocking is a good idea. But, some pools tend to run a bit more CC, and if it's not causing a problem . . . then it's not a problem. The minimum reading is 0.2 with the 0.2 ppm drop test, and 0.5 with the 0.5 ppm drop test.

Re: spring startup
Now I get it. Ben's edit made it clear. I thought you were thanking Jerry. Instead you are saying thanks from Jerry.
Well, plain old Jerry from Indiana --- welcome to the Pool Forum! We are very glad to have you! Hope I didn't offend you. I thought perhaps Ben had decided to change his name or something! He's prone to doing funny things at times!
