    Default 1st test results of spring - few questions...

    14,000 gallon above ground pool

    CYA - 0
    CL - 0
    Alk - 220
    Ph - 8.0

    Planning to add 2lbs 4oz CYA through skimmer. I know not to backwash for a week. How long should the pump run?

    I figure I'll just add a small bottle of bleach daily until CYA goes up - maybe shock next weekend?

    Will add muratic acid to lower Ph - is there a best method for doing this?

    I think last time my alk was high, I just areated by running the fountain. Any other suggestions?

    1 more question - how often should test kits be replaced?

    Thanks!!
