Okay, I just got back from the "pool store". (And laughed all the way out. She tried selling me Calcium Hardness again for my VINYL pool. And when I questioned her about it she said "you still need it because it acts as a barrier for the machinery". WHATEVER!!!) Anyway, here's the results:

FC .1
TC .4
CC .3
pH 8.2
CYA 9
ALK 55 (adjusted alk was the same)


I added one more gallon of Clorox (all I had left until tomorrow) and put 2 tablets in the skimmer. (May as well used the darn things up since I wasted the money on a WHOLE bucket full of it!!) I also ordered some more stabilizer solution so I can test the CYA myself again.

I have a question. The sheet said my temp. was 85 but there's NO way!! It feels more like 55 or so to me. I know the car ride there must have altered it in the 10 minutes it took to get there. Would it also affect the other results any?
