Re: Newly replastered pool, need chemical help
I think all of your numbers are fine except the ph. I would add Borax - it will raise your ph without doing much to the alkalinity. I would only shoot for 7.3-7.5 for now. You may get a rise in ph from the naturally curing plaster. I wouldn't add any calcium. You are at the right level - Keep testing your cya, because it will probably go up. Sometimes it takes a week or two for it to all show up. You are fine with your chlorine. Don't let it get too low, because you don't want it to go to 0 ever. I would keep it around 3. So you have room for it to drop a little. It is fine to swim now!! Enjoy your pool!
