    pH is a bit high--I'd lower it to 7.3-7.5.

    So is CC TRULY 0 or is the pool store idiot saying that? If it is you are in good shape. If both FC and TC are the same that's true because TC = FC + CC. That's always and forever.

    Pool girl said it was not a significant number because they can't test Free or Combined Cl over 10. Please help me understand why I want to lower my Ph?

    The higher the PH the less effective the chlorine - plus you are on the higher end of normal. Acid will lower the PH - download the bleach calculator to determine how much to put in.
