Dumb mistake - dumber question

[Gracy101]

Hi - hosted our first swimming happy hour yesterday after 3 days of terrible rains. Lots of friends, good food and drinks! After the party, my Cl was down to 3.0 and Ph had crept up to 8.0+ (new pool/LOTS of rain over 3 days).

After the party, I was not myself apparently and I misread the bleach calculator. Added a jug of acid - I'm ok there. But in trying to bring my Cl up from 3 ppm to 6 ppm, using what's left of chlorine from when I was "pool stored" I input 10.5% as variable. I should have used approx 1 qt chlorine, instead used 1 gallon (DUMB MISTAKE!) This morning, numbers are:

FC 11
CC 0
Ph 7.2
Alk 60
CYA 50
CH 350

Not really shock level at my CYA level per Ben's chart, just high Cl. Is there a downside to not "truly shocking"? Can that create a problem? (DUMB ? #1)

More importantly to my kids - can they swim? (DUMB ? #2)

You are FINE! Nothing to worry about...just put the kids in older suits, not their newest ones.

That's about all you need to concern yourself with.

Thank you sir.

As Carl said, no problem. If you want to bring the cl down a little quicker, let the kids out to run and play and tell them that it's ok this weekend not to rinse off before using the pool.
