Comments:
___________________________________________________________________________
- Alkalinity effects pH, Adjust alkalinity 1st,  Retest pH, then adjust pH.
  Always retest pH when ever any adjustments are made.

- Cyanuric acid protects chlorine against the sun's rays. It may not be
  needed with bromine or indoor pools. 

- TDS: Total Dissolved Solids. 

- Combined chlorine is total chlorine minus free chlorine.

- Shocking:- Super Chlorinating. You may need double the amount (10 ppm) or
             more (large amounts of algae, a high combined chlorine, etc.). 
           - Non chlorine oxidizers.  Will free up combined chlorine and 
             eliminate various contaminates. It does not kill bacteria or 
             algae and is not a substitution for normal chlorination.

- Saturation Index is -1.00  [-.3 to +.3 is considered ok]. A high index may
  account for cloudiness/scaling. A low index may indicate corrosive water.

-------------- COMMENTS and SPECIALITY CHEMICALS (if needed) ---------------

** Always follow manufacturers and builders recommendations. Some chemicals
   may not be compatible with each other or suitable for all pool and spa
   types. ** Use only those chemicals that are needed.

1) Metals (copper, iron) may stain your pool and cause colored water
   Check your water periodically. Use a chelating/sequestering compound.
         6.00 ozs  PS METAL REMOVER - Eliminates metals                 

2) An Algaecide may help kill, control, and prevention algae.
   Some are specifically formulated for different types of algae.
         6.00 ozs  PS ALGAE KIIL - Kills all algae types                

3) If calcium is high a scale/stain control compound may stop
   the formation of scale, thus postponing the need to dilute water.


4) Clarifiers can help the filtration to clear cloudy water.
         9.00 ozs  PS SUPER CLARIFIER - Increases clarity
