Corrective Action: Recommended to increase alkalinity to 120 ppm (proper range: 80ppm-120ppm) to ensure adequate alkalinity levels to account for testing error.
103   Improper Pool Temperature
Observation: - Pool temperature at 42°c. Maximum limit is 40°c. Temperature of water was higher due to new water being added prior to inspection.
Corrective Action: Ensure pool water temperature is lowered to less than 40°c.
