Adding chlorine, how much is safe

[Jeffski]

Okay, I've calmed down a bit since the last post and have re-tested the water. PH and ALK are fine, CYA at 50-60, FC at or just above 5.0 (test doesn't read higher). As far as I can tell there is no CC in the pool, but the test is so inaccurate I really have no idea.

I am running SWG at 80% to generate more chlorine and plan on pouring more into the pool I guess to treat cloudyness. Pump running nonstop for almost two days now. Salt level still reading just below 2900 but builder doesn't want to add more salt yet for fear of adding too much. After 3 days since the last salt was added I doubt it's going to jump up any more. Not sure what else I can do at this point.

I guess I have to get a better test kit.

IF this is a new plaster pool your cloudiness might be due to calcium in the plaster. Not an unusual occurance with new plaster.
