    Baquasil to Salt Water Chlorination

    I expected after I changed the sand that ta da! Everything would level out. Since we changed the sand our pool has been very clear (no more green tint), but we have not been able to stabilize the chlorine. I was only adding to 15 ppm at night since our days have been hot and sunny. The first...

    Conversion seems complete, but CC staying at 4ppm?

    I'm wondering if you ever managed to stabilize your CC levels. We are having a similar problem.

    Baquasil to Salt Water Chlorination

    We had the sand changed yesterday. There was a spike in the CC up to 6 but the water tint has cleared, so it appears to be doing something. This evening the FC = 6 and and CC = 3. I was hoping to install the SWG this weekend but it arrived severely damaged. I am looking forward to not having to...

    Baquasil to Salt Water Chlorination

    I didn't have the tool to change the sand so am having it changed tomorrow...1 week from when I started the conversion. Although I am not loosing much chlorine at night (1-2 FC), I am having trouble getting the CCs to drop below 3. I started adding CYA (aprox 6 lbs total) but am still loosing...
