I think you meant CC for Combined Chlorine that you recorded at 0, not TC or Total Chlorine (which would be the sum of Free Chlorine and Combined Chlorine). Anyway, your numbers look fine (you don't need CH for a vinyl pool unless you have exposed grout with tile) except that your chlorine level needs to be a little higher given the 32 ppm CYA level (which I assume is an estimate between 30 and 40 since the tube only shows every 10 ppm in the low range). See this chart and try to keep the Free Chlorine at a minimum of 3 ppm so start out higher so that it drops to no lower than 3 ppm the next time you add chlorine.

I think you meant CC for Combined Chlorine that you recorded at 0, not TC or Total Chlorine WHICH IS THE NUMBER OFF THE BLUE TEST KIT? THE WATER DID NOT TURN YELLOW WHEN I DID THE DROPS


(you don't need CH WHAT IS CH?

which I assume is an estimate between 30 and 40 since the tube only shows every 10 ppm in the low range) YES IT WAS JUST ABOVE THE 30 LINE

ANY IDEA HOW I GET A USERS MANUAL FOR THE KIT? I HAVE ALL THIS INFO AND NO IDEA WHAT TO DO WITH IT. I JUST DONT WANT MY POOL TO TURN GREEN, THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE HELP!
