    10 %

    I did the calc's on 24 units of water and it turns out to be 19.8K gallons so I was spot on at 20K gallons.
    I probably did the same thing 10 years ago.LOL

    I would keep the floater full of pucks and supplement FC with bleach in the evening as needed. You won't have measureable CYA until you've used most of your supply of pucks so don't waste the CYA reagent.

    There is water in the pool, I'm getting a decent chlorine reading, pH is spot on...monitoring morning and evening.....treating it like a new baby. It's kinda cool starting fresh, and actually taking care of it and starting to understand how things work. Kind of like getting a new girlfriend and getting to know her.
