How about your fill water?

I am sorry to jump in in the middle of this thread but this may be the first time in nine years calcium has been added to an AZ pool.
I see the background info now and sorry for making you repeat some stuff. That said, I would at least test your fill water.

I don't mind at all and apprecaite the help. Here are new test results from water out of the garden hose attached to the same line as the water leveler. That very hose was used for the initial fill:
FC 0 (as expected)
pH <7
TA 100 (10ml sample)
CH 75 (10ml sample)
Uncle Flappy, Do you have a sub pump? If you do you can use it to circulate your water and keep if from going green while they figure out the problem. Just add your chlorine and let the pump circulate it. If you do not have one they can be had for cheap at Harbor Freight.

I do know how to do the bucket test but took the lazy way out. Since it is losing water pretty quickly, I think we can confidently say that there is a problem.
The good news, I suppose, is that the PB replied to my email within seconds:
Do me a favor and shut off your pump and your water leveler. More often it's not necessarily a plumbing leak if there is a fitting in your pool that wasn't sealed properly we can get water leaking from there . I am going to make a call tomorrow to our guy that takes care of any leak issues that we have and see how soon I can get him out there. If it is a fitting that wasn't sealed properly we will certainly take care of it. If there truly is a plumbing leak then he can identify where the leak is at and depending on what it is we can get a price from him to fix it for you.
Not sure I like that last sentence but will play this out to see what they find before going apey. It will be interesting to see how far the waterline continues to fall.
I am curious - what sort of voodoo will they use to determine where the leak actually is?

With so much scrutiny, I had to do some more tests. Before sharing the results, let me go back 4 years to when we first bought the house.So your well basically consists of bottled water!?!? Wow, that is really the strangest well water water I've ever seen.
Thanks for the kind words, Denise!Flappy, I am so sorry you are having to go through this! I pray it's an easy and free or cheap fix!
Blessings!
Denise
I have to assume it is the original - circa 2004.How old is the skimmer?
