We had our first, and fantastically fun, pool party for the Fourth yesterday! At any given time there were 10 or more people in the pool, ranging from 1 to 76! I tested my water after it was over last night and my FC was 4.5 and CC 0.(had the SWG on boost for half of the party as recommended by builder). Is it necessary to shock the pool with these numbers? My builder had me chlorinate the pool with cal hypo shock before the SWG was functioning and I have some packets left.
If I should shock can I just pour the bags in the skimmer or is plain bleach better with the SWG? I figure since I have the cal hypo I'd use it up, but I don't want to mess up my water chemistry or damage my equipment.
