Thanks, I have no problem adding that 4kg Calcium Chloride.

Wow! Thank you so much for that link mgftp, precise and detailed. I wouldn't have come accross it otherwise.

Thank you mgftp, you saved my life:smile:! The test just now shows CH 200:goodjob: Do you think I still have to add 4kg of Calcium Chloride to increase it to 270?

Thanks mgftp. I will do another test with 10ml sample,.... and 8 drops of R-0010? Also, I collected a jar of sample water this morning, kept it inside the house till this evening. Can I still use that morning sample water to test? because I am already adding CYA in the pool now.

I willl make sure to check twice on the volume next time Thanks for the advise. I ran the pump before testing Great hint mgftp, so to opt for 10ml CH test do I reduce the amount R-0010 drops (8 drops instead of 20 drops)? Also when doing the 10ml FC test I used 1 dipper of R-0870 instead of 2...

Thanks for pointing this out too!...My note keeping error (again) : salt before rain was 4000 after rain 3200.

Thanks, will make FC16ppm

Yes I did read your morning post, thank you! This made me check my record again. It looked to me that I wrote on my note CH 250 as a target. My oriignal CH was 140, added 4kg Calcium Chloride to 170 and planned to add 4kg to increase it to 210 but rained (found 4kg bag is still unopened in...

:giggle: Yea, got the idea after reading this forum. Thanks for those important advise mgftp. No, the pool doesn't have a separate suction port, but we've been using an Ozito sump pump. It's good enough for the job.

Thanks for the opinion onBalance.

Thanks for elaborating that mgftp, I will take another test on Monday and pay close attention to that. the weather is unpredictable today and tommorow.

Thank you. I'll wait for advise then. About getting rid of rainwater....I had an idea to bring the water level really down below skimmer perhaps (since the pump will not run anyway whilst we are away). In this way we won't worry about overflowing if it's going to have heavy continuous rains.

Good idea 16ppm? or double it? (heard from some discussions in TFP ) Ok, I am also curious how the SWG alert low salt? I have never seen / noticed any alert even when the salt level is 2000 Thanks mgftp. I will do that. I couldn't think of anyone at the moment. Will cover the pool with an...

Yes mgtfp. I was about to ask for advise on this topic. I thought I had to start this question in separate post but haven't found out how to / if I could run 2 posts at the same time. I read from other people' posts on this topic instead where Dive Dave said to increase the FC to SLAM level (CYA...
