    Thumbs up Re: Cant hold chlorine

    Just wanted to pass on an update. Everything appears to be holding pretty good. Tested throughout the weekend and bleached as needed to maintain. Tested this evening and #s are:
    FC - 6.5
    TC - 7
    CC - .5
    PH - 7.2
    ALK - 105
    CH - 290
    CYA - didn't test/out of reagent/this test is diffacult to read/still above 60

    Not sure on maintenece dose yet. FC this morning at 4am was 10 and added 1 gal bleach.
    Did not add all day and this evening it was 6.5 so added about 1/2 gal. Pool in full sun from 10 to 6/7. Any advise? Thanks everybody for your help. This site is a life saver!!!

    Glad it's all working out for you. It will probably take a couple of weeks of testing and making additions until you work out the addition amount that's right for your pool. Sounds like you're already pretty close!
