Turned pump on (no issues), brushed walls, took sample at 10:30pm and test results are below FC 1.0 CC 0.2 pH 8.0 TA 150 CH 380 CYA 100 (dropped 170 from 270 diluted test result, hopefully this is manageable, or can repeat No Drain process after the summer season) CSI 0.63 Temp 76F Treating pH...

Excellent! will do 100%. Thank you!

The 2:1 diluted result was 200 and 3:1 was 270! When the builders dug the pool (Nov 2021) they didn't hit water until 5ft. But, like the No Drain idea, can discharge on 2 acres of natural landscaping. But should I treat the algae before I do the No Drain process? Caluclations and steps for...

Good evening, I'm finally back! Purchased the Taylor K-2006. CYA was 150 with the new kit. The advice from a pool company was not to add any more chlorine until CYA was corrected. Maybe this was not a good idea as pool water is now green. I have drained down to the 2nd step (Apr 24) and...

Good Evening, Pool maintenance has recently defaulted to me. No chemistry back at all. Water is clear and looks clean. Ran out of test strips a couple of days ago so began researching. I know now, the strips are not reliable. We've had the pool 2 years and pretty much used chlorine tablets...
