    Not a good idea to add anything that you are unsure of the ingredients. Better check the label and post the ingredients.

    Wait until you get your K2006 and test the CYA before deciding if you need to add any more or not.

    The granules I'm using are calcium hypochlorite. The bleach I bought is 5.25% sodium hypochlorite.

    Using the Taylor-2006 kit, here's my results:

    Ph 7.8-8.0
    2.42 ppm of FC
    .44 of combined chlorine
    110 ppm total alkalinity
    Maybe 30-40 ppm of CYA. Water never got cloudy enough to measure.
