So I added two full measures of Di-Chlor and tonight my readings were:
FC: 13.5
CC: <=.5 (minimum non-0 reading with Ben's kit)
TC: 14 (or less, but more than 13.5)
pH: 6.8 or a tad higher, but not 6.9
T/A: 80
CYA: 40
So I dumped in a box of Borax. We'll see tomorrow night. I expect pH to rise to 7.5 and T/A to rise as well, hopefully to 100 or more. I was about to add 1 pound of baking soda but remember that raising pH should raise T/A as well.
I'm now done with Di-Chlor and will use bleach. CYA is where I want it, and pH dropped. So bleach is now the chlorinator of choice.
Water's too cold for the Dolphin--it's not running as well as I would like.
Pump is running 24/7 for now, but on low speed.
