Thanks again everyone for your replies. I did my second "thorough" test today and everything seems great. Todays numbers were taken at 2:00pm with a water temp of 83F.

FC - 5
CC - 0.5
TC - 4.5
pH 7.8
ALK - 100
Cal - 340
Cya - 40
Salt - 3400

All the number are virtually the same with the exception of my free chlorine being a tad higher. The pH seems to be steady at 7.8 without any additional acid being added since my last post on the 1st.

The difference in Cal is probably user error on my first test. During todays test I added drops until the color changed back to blue and then stopped counting drops as soon as there was no longer any color change noted. Is that correct?

I added approximately a pound of conditioner and bumped the Cya from 30 to 40. I am leery of adding more conditioner without any firm range that will be effective for my SWCG and situation. I have read how difficult it is to remove, basically drain your pool, and because of that I don't want to go overboard with the Cya. My water is crystal clear, I seem to have good chlorine production at 30% cell operation, and the numbers seem to be consistent five days later, is there really a need to add more conditioner? Any thoughts?

I hope that everyone had a pleasant holiday and thank you again,

Mike
