    Default First full set of tests..

    Pool has been open for just over a week. Water is crystal clear other then some mornings when I see a couple ducks paddling around making waves! Seems leaving my solar cover on solves this problem really well.

    TC - 5
    FC - 5
    CC - 0
    TA - 100
    PH - 7.8
    CYA - 0
    Hardness - 160
    Salt - 2800

    I have just added 2.5kg of CYA and 4kg of AquaCal for the hardness number. They also are suggesting to increase the TA. From my readings here I get the drift that it should be kept lower to make the pH easier to adjust. I see posts with some as low as 80. The pool store is suggesting to adjust upwards closer to 120. Can one of the experts comment on whether I should just leave it be.

    Thanks.
