Hi Everyone,

First of all, thanks to everyone who posts here. I had an easier time opening my pool than ever before after spending some time on here. So, to business...

After reading numerous threads on the forum, I realized the value of a good test kit. It's hard to find a post that doesn't mention it!

So, my K-2006 arrived in the mail today, and I can tell I need to do some work!

FC: 0
CC: 0
PH: 7.2
TA: 60-70
CYA: <30

I did not test Calcium Hardness as I understand it's not entirely vital for Vinyl pools. If any of the numbers look off, let me know and I'll re-test.

I have a Vinyl Pool with 24,000 gallons running a D.E. filter and an Hayward in-line chlorinator. I'm sure you probably need more information, so please let me know what I'm leaving out.

Remarkably, my water is still clear! I'm sure it won't be for long though.

I've been using the HTH Super Shock n' Swim (Calcium Hypochlorite...I think) at least once a week, and the
HTH Super 3” Chlorinating Tablets.

Now that you have most of the information....

My questions are:
How do I get my CYA up to the 50s?
How much Borax do I need to raise my PH to 7.4-7.6ish (if that's where it should be)?
Is my TA at an OK level?

Thank you in advance!
