    Default New Testkit & My Results

    Hello,

    Here are my results-
    FC: 24
    CC: 0
    TC: 24
    pH: 7.2
    Alk: 110
    Cal: 300
    Cya: 65

    Its a 45,000 gal. plaster in-ground pool. The water is very clear. I'm a little concerned with the high chlorine reading, though.

    I have a "puck chlorinator," but have removed the pucks 2 days ago, as I plan to use only bleach now that I have my new PS234 testkit.

    Any advice/comments would be great.

    Thanks,

    Paul

    Hi, Paul,

    Those are good numbers. Nice work. I would let the Cl drift down and maintain it around 5-10ppm with your current CYA level. It's not at any danger level currently....it'll probably come down 2-4ppm daily on it's own

    Good thinking........ditching the pucks.

    Clear water and the test kit in your possession to help keep it there.....life is good!

    Those are good numbers all around. Nice work. I would let the Cl drift down and maintain it around 5-10ppm with your current CYA level. It's not at any danger level currently....it'll probably come down 2-4ppm daily on it's own
