Re: New Pool, Went to the pool store! Help
1. Do you have the bleachCalc? if not get it here
2. Bleach. You need .7 gallons to get to 3ppm FC (3-6 is recommended with CYA of 30-50... best guess table
3. According to BleachCalc, you need 3#7oz CYA to get to 30ppm (30-50 is recommended here)
4. Baking Soda. you need 12# to raise your TA to 80, with 80-125recommended here. This will prolly raise your pH (?).
5. Don't worry about calcium in a vinyl pool, unless it gets up to 500
6. While you wait for Ben's kit, get a 5 or 6 way drops kit from WalMart and start practicing!
7. Enjoy your pool!!!
I am not sure if the order I listed is the order in which you need to do these things... bleach is all important, though, so get it in there quick!
