    Michael,

    I've seen some differing info about this. Acceptable ranges listed as 200 to 1000 ppm, for example.

    What would you say is the acceptable range and the ideal?

    Thanks,
    Lenny

    For an in-ground, plaster pools, the generally accepted range is 200 - 400. As you get higher in Ca content in the water, your chances of being in a scaling condition increase. I'm about to start a ruckus with a Ca thread, so stay tuned.
