    Hi, Eric,

    Pretty good numbers. I have two thoughts:

    1. CYA=51? Generally, you would post that in increments of 10 (40, 50, 60, etc.)...that's about as close as you can get.

    2. Keep an eye on that CC of 1.0. If it gets any higher or you start to smell chlorine around your pool, it's time for a good shock. (Actually, if you tested 1.0 next time you test, I'd shock it) Cl all the way up to 25-30 won't hurt a bit. Then let your Cl drift down naturally and maintain it between 3-7 as a good range.

    If you shock with Cal Hypo, keep an eye on your Ca ppm. It's darn near perfect right now, but two or three good shocks with Cal Hypo and you'll see some upward movement.

    The kit's great, huh?

    Thanks for your comments, I beleive I may have made a mistake with the Cya testing, and will do that one over again. Yes the kit is great! felt like I was back in chemistry class.
