    Ok it's been 6 days since initial fill. I started the SWCG yesterday. I took samples before it started for today. Here are my readings:
    Cl 1-2
    pH 8.8
    Alk 140
    Hard 40
    CYA Black dot not disappearing with full tube.
    Any advice on how to proceed.
    Thanks
    18' x 48 Intex

    You need to check your SWCG manual and see what the requirement is for the CYA and raise it to that level for your unit to function properly.

    Your pH is way too high. Use some muriatic acid to lower it some. Please read this first:> http://pool9.net/muriatic/
