    You should probably have your SWG turned up to a higher setting during normal use. If you get it going right you should pretty much never have to shock your pool.

    Thanks for the info. We have the chlorine up to 10 ppm or more. Our test vial only goes to 5 ppm. I know this, because we diluted the pool water with 1/2 distilled water and the vial still read 5 ppm. Can I dilute the pool water futher to show a higher level of chlorine, if it is present? How I would I dilute the water more? Could I use 1 part pool water to 2 parts distilled and then triple the reading on the Ch test vial?
    Thanks, Web

    Yes, you can increase the dilution and just multiply by the total parts of water to get the real number.
