    Default new kit - first test

    HI to all,

    I got my new kit and love it - everything is organized so well. I don't have a book that tells me what the results mean - or maybe there is a link online?

    So here it goes:

    FC 14
    CC 0
    TC 5
    pH 7.2
    Alk 95
    Calcium 480
    Cya 100
    Temp ~90

    It is warm here in Florida and although the chlorine is a bit high the water is murky.

    I have a new inground plaster pool with a salt generator and cartridge pump. The pool uses a 2 speed pump so the water is always circulating.

    Any advice is appreciated!! I think from reading around that I have CYA and Calcium contents that are too high. We are expecting a bit of rain and the pool is down about an inch now - not sure if I should wait and retest or just drain and refill a bit. Not sure how much to drain and refill. Or if I can avoid that.
