You Win again! Thanks for the reply.....Thank I will save that 50 bucks and go buy some beer! Oh by the way when I was in the pool store TWO individuals had CYA so high even the Leslie pool man said drain water about 4 ft and refill, same with the second couple getting their water...

Blake I do believe you are on the money.....I will be very patient and only 1 Puck a week testing weekly to see what is does. Thanks for your time and I hope you have a great weekend!

Blake, thanks for the reply.....I dont have a SWCG and the only reason I am asking this question is with the rains and adding water I have noticed my CYA dropping a little over time. I would like to keep my CYA at about 40 and thinking of adding a puck or two (per week) in a floating basket to...

Is it recommended to ELEVATE when needed your CYA using 3 inch Pucks? Not sure how much stabilizer a 3" puck would add to the water but I was thinking of adding one puck in a floating basket to help keep my CYA from falling below 40. My current water test using the TF100 CYA 40 FC 6 CC 0...

Jason, After some research found my pump to only be a 1 1/2 horse power, changed in signature. Anyway after learning my new pump size do you stick with your recommend or would you add plumping to additional return on the other side of pool? Thanks

OK after maintaing a FC 12 for over a week I decided to check it last night and I read FC 10. Awoke this morning and checked again and reading was exactly the same at FC 10 no CC. Water looks great. Yesterday I was able to get in the pool (warm) and vacuum floors/walls, clean filter and change...

Yea Dave meant well! But thanks Blizzle......ok no DE, I just hope my cartridge and sock I run over the skimmer will get this pesky stuff. I will keep you posted on my progress and the battle continues!

Ok guys/gals.....Hope the weather warms up enough this weekend to roll up my sleeves and begin again my battle with dead algea on the floor of my pool :grrrr: The water looks GREAT as I have maintained a FC level of 15 over the last several days. :goodjob: I will perform full test on Sunday...

I would like to increase the water circulation in my pool. The return on my pool pushes OK but would like to have more movement on the other side of the pool where my ladder sits. Is this even necessary? I keep my eye tilted toward the floor of the pool just seems like there is lots of dead...
